San Marcos City Park archaeological survey, Hays County, Texas (open access)

San Marcos City Park archaeological survey, Hays County, Texas

"At the request of the City of San Marcos, the Center for Archaeological Studies (CAS) conducted archaeological testing of the playground in San Marcos City Park under Texas Historical Commission Antiquities Permit No. 2731. The testing was conducted on October 26 and 29, 2001, to determine whether scheduled renovation of the playground would disturb potentially intact prehistoric or historic cultural material. Shovel testing revealed possibly intact subsurface deposits below approximately 50 cm of disturbed deposits, and subsequently site 41HY319 was recorded. CAS assessed that it is unlikely that cultural resources would be impacted during construction of the playground equipment, as planned construction activities will not extend below the previously disturbed zone."

Non-vital advance rail preemption of signalized intersections near highway-rail grade crossings (open access)

Non-vital advance rail preemption of signalized intersections near highway-rail grade crossings

Technical report examining two strategies were investigated to ensure pedestrian clearance time in intersections near highway-rail grade crossings. The first utilizes a lower-level preemption sequence to guarantee full pedestrian clearance to a terminating phase before the traffic signal starts the preemption sequence. The second strategy uses the pedestrian-omit feature to prevent the controller from activating the pedestrian interval if there is not sufficient time in advance of the start of the preemption sequence to provide full pedestrian clearance.
