a/ There was a need to know the volumes traffic for a rural project where 24 hrs. flows were counted on Thursday, Friday and Saturday in December as follow, Thursday = 8000, Friday = 8000 and Saturday = 10000. Q2 /b/ Design data is required for improvement of two – lane of two – way highway with central reserve. The current traffic in 2016 expressed by AADT is 3000 vehicles. The improved road with a design life of 20 years will opened to traffic in 2021, the estimated annual growth rate of traffic is 8%, K-factor is 12% of AADT and D (Directional distribution) is 55% of total traffic.
