The traffic from a suburban area to a city uses the following five shorter routes, as shown below. Access from Suburban Route 4 Route 1 Route 5 Route 2 Route 3 Access to City The models below show the travel time as a function of traffic flow on each route. t₁ = 18 + 4.5 x₁ t₂ = 21+ 7.0 x₂ t3 = 26 + 4.9 x3 t4 = 29+ 3.4 x4 t5 = 34 + 0.3 x5 Where: t; is travel time on route 'i' (in minutes) and x; is traffic flow on route 'i' (in 1000 vehicles).

1. Flow is defined as the equivalent hourly rate at which vehicles pass a point on a highway during a time period. 2. The theoretical minimum value of occupancy for a loop detector installed on a highway is 3. The vehicle headway is always less 4. Time-mean speed is equal to the arithmetic (greater/less) than the value of time gap. (arithmetic/harmonic) mean of the spot speed values.
On a six-lane EDSA, an observer is stationed at a certain spot. All of the cars in lane 1 are moving at a speed of 80 kph, 75 kph in lane 2, and 90 kph in lane 3,66 kph in lane 4,70 in lane 5, 65 in lane 6 and 85 for the bus lane respectively. In addition, cars are kept at a constant 65-meter distance between. What will be the time-mean speed and space-mean speed for such a traffic stream based on the acquired spot speed data for all cars as they cross the observation site for 60 minutes?
Transportation Engineering Roll No. - 69 do the numerical part 2. Explain with the help of sketches various types of highway intersections. The 15 minute design traffic volume on cross road 1 and 2 during peak hour are observed as 180+R.No. and 150+R.No. vehicles per lane respectively.

Question 4 Vehicles begin to arrive at a border gate at 06h50 with a deterministic arrival rate of λ (t) = 5.2 - 0.01t (λ is in vehicles per minute and t in minutes after 06h50). However, the gate opens at 07h00 and serves vehicles at a rate of μµ(t) =3.3 + 2.4t (with t in minutes after 07h00 and u in vehicles per minute). Once the service rate reaches 10 vehicles per minute, it stays at that level for the rest of the day. ● ● Illustrate the operational characteristics of the vehicle queue-delay on a (cumulative) vehicle-Time graph.
