Question

an 8 lane bfs in rolling terrain has a lanr width of 12 ft right shoulder width of 8 ft one interchange every 2 ,iles. the traffic volume is 2360 veh / h which consists of 6% trucks.

the peak hour factor is 0.895. 

Determine the LOS

Expert Solution
Step 1

BFFS = 70 mph   (Standard value taken) Lane width = W = 12 ft.Total no of lanes = 8Right shoulder width = RLC = 8 ftTraffic volume = V = 2360 veh/hrPT=6%

Here, for the given condition the standard values.

fLW=0fLC=0fN=0fID=0
