- Eight lane urban freeway is on level terrain with lane width of 12 ft, right shoulder lateral clearance of 4 ft, and 12 ramps over the 6-mi analysis segment. The traffic stream consists of unfamiliar road users. Peak hour volume for a directional weekday of 3200 vehicles is observed with 900 vehicles arriving in the most congested 15-min period. If the traffic stream has 20% large trucks and 20% buses and 15% recreational vehicles, determine the density in pc/mi/In. Round your answer to 3 decimal places. Exclude the unit in the answer box.The following figure shows the Level of Service (LOS) criteria for a multilane highway segment. If the free flow speed is 45 mph and the analysis flow rate is 1800 passenger cars per hour per lane (pc/h/In). What is the actual speed and density of the traffic flow at this specific location?

- Assume you are observing traffic in a single lane of McArthur Highway at a specific location. You measure the average headway and average spacing of the vehicles as 3.2sec. and 50 m. respectively. Determine the traffic flow in vehicle/hour.A freeway with flow rate ( VP ) = 1600 Pc/hr./In. and free flow speed = 55 %3D mile/hr. the recommended level of service ( LOS ) when you drop on Figure is: * O LOS A LOS D O LOS B LOS C LOS FThere are 9 vehicles observed in a 300 m section of McArthur highway. If the average time headway is 4 sec., compute the space mean speed of the vehicles in kph.
- 9. A segment of a highway was designed for a free flow speed of 90 mph. At the time of observation along the segment, it was recorded that same segment was at its maximum flow. What is the average speed of vehicles at this instant? a) 60 kph b) 45 kph c) 55kph d) 75kph 10. In Problem 9, what is the density of vehicles at maximum flow? a) 1/3 jam density b) 1/4 jam density c) 1/2 jam density d) none of theseA 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.A six-lane freeway (three lanes in each direction) in mountainous terrain has 10-ft lanes and obstructions 1 ft from the right edge. There are five ramps within three miles upstream of the segment midpoint and four ramps within three miles downstream of the segment midpoint. The traffic stream consists of mostly commuters with a peak hour factor of 0.84, peak-hour volume of 2500 vehicles, and 4% recreational vehicles. What is the level of service? (Write the letter only)
- A four-lane basic freeway segment on level terrain is being redesigned. The current roadway has 12 ft lanes with 4 ft shoulders. The proposed alignment would expand to six 11-ft lanes with 2 ft shoulders. The road carries 3000 vehicles in the peak hour in one direction, with 925 coming in the peak 15 minutes. The truck mix is 70/30 and makes up 10% of traffic. What is the density and LOS (level of service) before and after the proposed change?1) A 6-lane two-way arterial road has a maximum flow of 6,000 vehicles per hour on one direction. It is operating at 3,600 vehicles per hour at time, t=0. A collision occurs, blocking the two lanes, and restricting the flow of the outermostlane to 1,600 vehicles per hour. After 40minutes, the police have cleared the middlelane from accident debris; the operating volume at that time increased to 2,400 vehicles per hour.20 minutes past, the innermost lane was finally cleared of the accident. Traffic returns to normalas soon as the queue has already immoderate. a.Determine the maximum length of queue that occurred. b.How long did it take to dissipate the queue? c.If a vehicle entered the road at t=10 minutes, how long will it take for it to leave the traffic?A portion of the extension of SLEX has a free flow speed of 60kph and a capacity of 3600 veh/hr. If in a given hour, 3344 vehicles were countered at a specified point along this highway, determine the traffic density of these 3344 vehicles.
