A six-lane freeway (three lanes in each direction in mountainous terrain has 10-ft lanes and obstructions 1ft from the right edge. There are five ramps within three miles upstream of the segment midpoint and four ramps within three miles downstream of the segment midpoint. The traffic stream consists of mostly commuter with a peak hour factor of 0.84, peak-hour volume of 2500 vehicles, and 4% recreational vehicles. What is the level of service?
A new section of a freeway is to be designed with a free-flow-speed of 65 mph along of 0.75 mile on 5% upgrade. The expected traffic volume is 4200 v/hr. The traffic composition is 15% trucks, 5% recreational vehicles, and 10% buses. The peak hourly factor is 0.9, the unfamiliar driver factor is 0.95. If the design requirement is to target a level of service (B), how many lanes must be provided to satisfy the design requirement?

5. Find the level of service of the following road: (45 points) ▪ ▪ 6-lane multilane highway, terrain: 2 miles long 4% upgrade, speed limit: 55 mi/h lanes: 11ft, a two-way left-tum lane in the median, right shoulder: 5 ft, PHF: 0.90 peak hour traffic volume in each direction: 4500 veh/h with 10% SUTs and 5% TTs ▪ 30 access points in 2 miles ▪ Solution ET = 2.745 fHV = 0.792 Vp 2104 pc/h/In FFS = 50.15 mph c = 2083 pc/h/In S = 46.13 mph D = 45.61 pc/mi/In LOS F
Consider the geometric and traffic characteristics shown below. Approach(Width) North(56 ft) South(56 ft) East(68 ft) West(68 ft) Peak hour Approach Volumes: Left Turn 165 105 200 166 Through Movement 447 400 590 543 Right Turn 162 157 191 200 Conflicting Pedestrian Volumes 900 1,200 1,200 900 PHF 0.95 0.95 0.95 0.95 For the following saturation flows: Through lanes: 1,600 veh/h/ln Through-right lanes: 1,400 veh/h/ln Left lanes: 1,000 veh/h/ln Left-through lanes: 1,200 veh/h/ln Left-through-right lanes: 1,100 veh/h/ln The total cycle length was 283 s. Now assume the saturation flow rates are 10% higher, that is, assume the following saturation flow rates: Through lanes: 1,760 veh/h/ln Through-right lanes: 1,540 veh/h/ln Left lanes: 1,100 veh/h/ln Left-through lanes: 1,320 veh/h/ln Left-through-right lanes: 1,210 veh/h/ln Determine a suitable signal phasing system and phase lengths (in s) for the intersection using the…
ramps within 3 miles upstream and downstream of the segment midpoint. It is on rolling terrain with 10% heavy vehicles and is operating at capacity with a peak-hour factor of 0.9. If the road is expanded to four 11-foot lanes with a 2-foot right shoulder, and traffic after the expansion is projected to increase by 10% with the same heavy vehicle percentage and peak-hour factor, what is the new LOS and estimated density? P-22 Chapter 6 Problems hour. What would be the LOS before and after the heavy vehicles are allowed on the upgrade (assuming 50% SUTs and 50% TTs.)? 6.21 A multilane highway has four lanes (two lanes in each direction) and a measured FFS of 55 mi/h. The directional peak-hour volume is 1900 vehicles (the peak-hour factor is 0.80). One upgrade is 5% and is 0.62 mi long. Currently, heavy vehicles are not permitted on the highway, but local authorities are considering allowing heavy vehicles on this upgrade. If this is done, they estimate that 150 heavy vehicles will use…
A rail transit system has prescribed the following factors:1. Peak hour demand = 30000 passengers/hr2. Minimum required speed = 55 ft/sec3. Deceleration = 3 ft/sec24. Safety factor = 1.455. Vehicle length = 80 ft6. Allowable vehicle capacity = 150 pass/veh7. Guideway utilization factor = 0.838. Minimum headway = 110 secHow many cars should the train consist of to provide adequate passenger capacity?
