QUESTION 10 One lane of a uniform section of highway has an optimum density of 70 vehicles per mile and an optimum speed of 35 miles per hour. Calculate the free flow speed (mph).
The free-flow speed at section of an expressway is 70 mph and density at flow = 0 is 120 vehicle/mile. Determine the density when the flow is at maximum. Determine the maximum capacity. Determine the speed at maximum flow.
On a road, the speed-density relationship of a traffic stream is given by u = 70 -0.7 k (where speed, u, is in km/h and density, k, is in veh/km). At the capacity condition, the average time headway will be
Assume that the speed-density function of a section of a highway follows the Greenshields model. The free-flow speed is 75 mph and the jam density is 176 veh/mi/In. Derive V as a function of S. In 15 minutes, you have counted that V = 150 veh/15-minute/In. Estimate the two possible speeds S (in mph) during this 15-minute period.

A segment of rural freeway is being designed for a FFS of 70 mph through rolling terrain. The directional (i.e. one-way) design volume is 3,000 vehicles per hour. If 10% of the design volume is expected to be heavy vehicles (i.e. trucks and buses), what is the heavy vehicle adjustment used to determine the flow rate? Provide you answer to the nearest hundredths. Response Feedback: f₁ HV 1 1+ · + P ₁ (E₁ − ¹) T T -where PT-0.1, ET=3.0
For a national highway, the free mean velocity and jam density are 80 kmph and 45 Veh/km respectively. A student mistakenly takes the quadratic relation between the velocity and traffic density in Green-Shield model as shown below: V = All the symbols have the usual meaning. Find the magnitude of error in maximum capacity of the road in Veh/hr (upto two places after decimal)
