| Abstract |
This report presents the results of the analysis of mechanized street cleaning in urban areas. It includes the description of a data bank that contains detailed information on a blockside basis for a 300 block area. On the basis of these data the strong interrelationship between sweeper routes and no-parking regulations is established. It is then noted that the effectiveness of street cleaning by mechanical brooms is limited by the presence of illegally parked cars along curbs. A model that relates enforcement to expected level of compliance is developed and validated with actual data. A class of implementable policies that yields satisfactory results is presented. These results are used to determine routes and schedules that increase the effectiveness of enforcement officers. |
