A portion of the extension of SLEX is known to have a free-flow speed of 80 kph and a capacity of 4200 vehicles per hour. If in a given hour 3275 vehicles were countered at a specified point along this highway, compute the space mean speed of these 3275 vehicles. Use the equation q = k₁ [u] Where q = flow, k;= jam density, u = space mean speed, u₁ = free flow speed (10)

A section of highway has a speed–flow relationship of the form q = au2 + bu, where q is the traffic flow in veh/h, u is the space-mean speed of traffic in mi/h, and a and b are unknown parameters. It is known that at capacity (which is 3100 veh/h) the spacemean speed of traffic is 28 mi/h. Determine the speed when the flow is 1500 veh/h and the free-flow speed.
QUESTION 4 A segment of a 4-lane highway is being designed for a FFS of 60 mph through relatively level terrain. The directional (i.e. one-way) design volume is 1,200 vehicles per hour. If 15% 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?

A freeway with two northbound lanes is shut down because of an accident. At the time of theaccident, the traffic flow rate is 1200 vehicles per hour per lane and the flow remains at this level.The capacity of the freeway is 2200 vehicles per hour per lane when not impacted by an accident.The freeway is shut down completely for 20 minutes after the accident and then one lane is openfor 20 minutes and finally both lanes are opened (40 minutes after the accident). What is theaverage delay per vehicle resulting from the accident (assuming D/D/1 queuing)?

A section of the roadway has the following flow-density relationship q=50k-0.4k^2 [q is in veh/h unit and k in vh/mile]. What is the flow, speed,and density at capacity? What is the density when highway is at one-third of its capacity.
Two routes connect an origin and a destination and the flow is 15000 veh/h. Route 1 has a performance function t1=4+3*x1, and route 2 has a function of t2=b+6*x2, with the x's expressed in thousands of vehicles per hour and the t's in minutes. (a) If the user equilibrium flow on route 1 is 9780 veh/h, determine the free-flow speed on route 2(i.e. b) and equilibrium travel times. (b) If population declines reduce the number of travelers at the origin and the total origin-destination flow is reduced to 7000 veh/h, determine user equilibrium travel times and flows.

1. An AGVS has an average loaded travel distance per delivery = 91,5 m. The average empty travel distance is not known. Required number of deliveries/h = 50. Load and unload times are each 0,5 min and the AGV speed = 61 m/min. Anticipated traffic factor = 0,85 and availability = 0,95. Develop an equation that relates the number of vehicles required to operate the system as a function of the average empty travel distance Le.
