An engineer, wishing to determine the travel time and average speed along a section of an urban highway as part of an annual trend analysis on traffic operations, conducted a travel time study using the floating-car technique. He carried out 10 runs and obtained a standard deviation of ±3 mi/h in the speeds obtained. If a 5% significance level is assumed, is the number of test runs adequate?

Fundamental principles of travel flow

To better represent the flow, the traffic flow is generally constrained along a one-dimensional pathway, like a travel lane and various relationships have been established, some of the relationships are outlined below.
