A freeway is being designed to carry a heavy volume of 5000 veh / h on a regular weekday in rolling terrain . If the PHF is 0.9 and the traffic consists of 90 % passenger cars and 10 % trucks , determine the number of 12 - ft lanes required in each direction if the highway is to operate at level of service C. The free - flow speed is 70 mi / h , there is no lateral obstruction , and interchanges are 3 mi apart .

Intersection Design

An intersection is a location where two or more roads or railways meet or join. The traffic movement is controlled at the intersection that depends on its design and type. It governs the operation, efficiency, speed, capacity, and safety of the highways, airways, and railways. The movement of the pedestrian causes hazards and delays at the intersection.
