Q2 An on-line bus stop with one loading area is located farside of an intersection along a rural road. The road has two 3.2 m lanes per direction and is on a 5% uphill grade. Parking is not permitted on the approaches of the intersection and close to the bus stop. Currently there are 5 buses serving the route every hour. The following information is given: Dwell time Clearance time Cycle length Green time Heavy vehicles Total volume Left turning vehicles Pedestrian-bicycle blockage factor Base saturation flow (a) (b) : 120 seconds : 12 seconds : 120 seconds :40 seconds : 20% :550 vehicles/hour :160 vehicles/hour :0.95 : 1,900 passenger cars/hour/lane 14 Determine the capacity of the curb lane. Assuming that the coefficient of variation of dwell times is 0.80 and the failure rate is 5% calculate the capacity of the loading area. S

(a) (b) (c) Determine the capacity of the curb lane. Assuming that the coefficient of variation of dwell ones is 0.30 and the failure rate is 5%, calculate the capacity of the leading area. Determine the capacity of the bus stop If the bus operator plans to add another 2 buses per hour to this route, will the bes stop be able to accommodate the additional buser?
