A new suburban freeway is designed in a level terrain, peak hour volume is 4000 veh/hr and the flow consists of 15% trucks and 3% recreational vehicles. The traffic is commuter type with peak hour factor 0.85 and interchanging density as 0.9 interchanges per kilometer. Lane width is proposed to be 3.6m with lateral clearance of 1.8m. Compute the lanes required to provide LOS B during peak hour.
