1. A toll bridge carties 10,000 veh/day. The current toll is P150/vehicle. Studies shown that for each increase in toll of 25, the traffic volume will decrease by 1000 veh day. It is desired to increase the toll 10 a point where revenue will be maximized. Write the expression for travel demand on the bridge related to toll inerease and current volume. b. Determime the toll charge to maximize revenues. Deleimine trattic in veh day after toll increase. Deleimine the total revenue increase with new toll

4. Three routes connect and origin and a destination with performance functions t₁ = 8 + x₁, t₂ = 1 + 2x₂, and t3 = 1 + 0.5x3 (with x's in thousands of vehicles per hour and t's in minutes). If the peak-hour traffic demand is 3400 vehicles, determine user- equilibrium traffic flows on each route. [Ans: x₂ = 0.68]
A toll bridge carries 6000 vch/day The current toll is $3.50/vehicle. Studies have shown hat for each increase in toll of 50 cents, the traffic volume will decrease by 500 veh/day. Jus desired to increase the toll to a point where revenue will be maximized. (a) Write the expression for travel demand on the bridge, related to toll increase and current volume. (b) Determine the toll charge to maximize revenbes. (o Determine traffic in vel/day after the loll increase, (d) Determine the total revente increase with the new tol.
A bridge has been constructed between the mainland and an island. The total cost (excludingtolls) to travel across the bridge is expressed as C = 50 + 0.5V, where V is the number ofveh/hr and C is the cost/veh in pesos. The demand for travel across the bridge is V = 2500 −10C.a. Determine the volume of traffic across the bridge.b. If a toll of 25 pesos is added, what is the volume across the bridge?c. A tollbooth is to be added, thus reducing the travel time to cross the bridge. The new costfunction is C = 50 + 0.2V. Determine the volume of traffic that would cross the bridge.
Question:- Traffic counts in the year 2000 at a counting point on a national highway gave ADT as follows: 4000cars,1750 taxis,250 trucks,100 buses.National traffic growth in the area is expected to be 5% for private cars and taxis, 3% for trucks and buses.After improvements, generated traffic for the highway will be 20 % of the 2000 ADT.It is required to design the cross-section of the highway to satisfy the traffic needs by the year 2015 show all visible dimensions on a drawing sketch. Take:-K= 0.15PLC = 800 p.c.e'/hour.directional distribution (D) is 0.6
Problem. At the train station. The operations manager have scheduled an outbound trips required to go to its place of destination. The vehicle can accommodate 90 passengers per vehicle. And there are three vehicles per train. Fifteen train sets its trip per hour. (Analyze the problem using a Block Diagram to solve the problem. This will serve as your visual aide in analyzing the train problem.) Required: 1. Determine the number of passengers who boarded the train in an hour. (How many commuters boarded the train in an hour?) 2. How many trips were made within an Hour? 3. Determine the train interval. This will serve as its scheduled trips in an Hour. 4. If the scheduled trips / operational hour will start from 6 am, and the last scheduled trip is 10 pm. How many commuters were transported presuming the train is 100 percent fully occupied.

The daily counts of the current traffic volume for a rural highway for one week of May 2000 are as shown in the following table: Sat. Sun. Mon. Tues. Wed. Thur. Fri. Day Daily volume 12000 12500 10500 11500 9500 9000 8500 The traffic is composed of 70% passenger car, 20% bus, 10% truck. The percent of future traffic to current traffic is predicted to be 180% up to May 2020. Determine the required number of lanes for this highway if the lane capacity is 1300 pc/hr.
