1. A freeway has three lanes in each direction and has a maximum flow of 100 veh/min. It is operating at 50 veh/min. A collision occurs, blocking the two lanes and restricting the flow of the third lane to 25 veh/min. The freeway has a constant speed of 60 veh/hr and its three- lane jam density is 60 veh/m. The incident is completely cleared in 30 minutes and traffic returns to normal as soon this happened. a. Determine the length of queue 20 mins after the collision. b. Determine the longest vehicle queue. 750 veh c. In how many minutes will the queue dissipate? 45 mia So vh.

A two-lane highway in a level terrain and class III has a lane width of 12ft (3.6m) and shoulder width of 6ft (1.8m) with a base free flow speed of 45 mi/hr (70 km/hr). In the section of analysis, the % of non-passing zones is 100%. During the peak hour, the analysis directional flow rate is 150 veh/h, the opposing direction flow rate is 100 veh/h, and the peak hour factor is 0.95. The % of large trucks is 5% and 10% of recreational vehicles. Determine the level of service of this road section
4) Traffic on the eastbound approach of a signalized intersection is traveling at 35 mi/hr, with a density of 46 veh/mi/In. The duration of the red signal indication for this approach is 30 sec. If the saturation flow is 1900 veh/h/In with a density of 52 veh/mi/In, and the jam density is 125 veh/mi/In, determine the following: (i) The length of the queue at the end of the red phase (ii) The maximum queue length (iii) The time it takes for the queue to dissipate after the end of the red indication.
i need correct solution asap in 20 mins
An approach at a signalized intersection with a 60-second cycle gets 30 seconds of displayed green time. Yellow time is 4 seconds and all-red is 2 seconds (lost time is to be determined from standard assumptions). At the beginning of an effective red there are 4 vehicles in the queue and the saturation flow is 876 veh/h. The arrival rate is given by v(t) = 0.20 - 0.002t [with v(t) in veh/s and t in seconds after the beginning of the effective red]. What is the average vehicle delay for this approach in seconds at the end of the cycle (until the next effective red) that started with the 4 vehicles queued at the beginning of the effective red? (Assume D/D/1 queueing. Please provide you answer in decimal form without units)
I need correct solution
A multilane highway (three lanes in each direction) is on level terrain. The free flow speed has been measured at 50mph. The peak-hour directional volume is 1500 vehicles with 10% heavy vehicles, and PHF is 0.9. If the proportion of vehicles types and peak-hour factor remains constant, how many vehicles can be added to the directional volume before capacity is reached?
NEED NEED ANSWER ASAP !!!
Quest... In a three-phase signal system design for a four- leg intersection, the critical flow ratios for each phase are 0.18, 0.32, and 0.22. The total loss time in each of the phases is 2 s. As per Webster's formula, find the optimal cycle length.
Question- A signalized intersection operates in two phases. The lost time is 3 seconds per phases. The maximum ratios of approach flow to saturation flow for the two phases are 0.37 and 0.40. The optimum cycle length using the Webster's method (in seconds, round off to one decimal place) is...
