In a traffic safety study to reduce pedestrian-vehicle accidents on a level road segment, it was estimated that by a video camera that vehicles moved during deceleration an average distance of 60 m at the moment before hitting pedestrians. If the average speed on this segment is 80 kph, compute the maximum safest speed of vehicles on this segment assuming a deceleration rate of vehicles is 3.4 m/s². Answer: v= 72.7 kph
Determine the total stopping distance (ft) for a highway with a design speed limit of 55mph. Assume G = 3.39%. Round your answer to 3 decimal places.
Five vehicles are traveling the highway from Point A to Point B at constant speeds. An observer at point A observes the five vehicles passing the designated point during an interval period of 29 seconds. Speeds of the vehicles are as follows : 55, 40, 45, 50, 32 kph. Calculate the flow in veh/hr. the final answer is 620.6897
An observer counts 240 veh/h at a specific highway location. Assume that the vehicle arrival at the location is Poisson distributed, the probability of having one vehicle arriving over a 30 seconds time interval is
Assume that the speed-density function of a section of a highway follows the Greenshields model. The free-flow speed is 75 mph and the jam density is 176 veh/mi/In. Derive V as a function of S. In 15 minutes, you have counted that V = 150 veh/15-minute/In. Estimate the two possible speeds S (in mph) during this 15-minute period.
A segment of rural freeway is being designed for a FFS of 70 mph through rolling terrain. The directional (i.e. one-way) design volume is 3,000 vehicles per hour. If 10% of the design volume is expected to be heavy vehicles (i.e. trucks and buses), what is the heavy vehicle adjustment used to determine the flow rate? Provide you answer to the nearest hundredths. Response Feedback: f₁ HV 1 1+ · + P ₁ (E₁ − ¹) T T -where PT-0.1, ET=3.0
Question 35 24-h traffic count at a road section was observed to be 1000 vehicles on a Tuesday in the month of July. If daily adjustment factor for Tuesday is 1.121 and monthly adjustment factor for July is 0.913, the Annual Average Daily Traffic (in veh/day, round off to the nearest integer) is
Measurements from a single-lane roadway reveal that the average spacing and headway between passing vehicles are 200 ft and 2.4 seconds, respectively. What is the flow [veh/hr], density [veh/mi] and average speed [mi/hr] of traffic on this roadway?
Consider the following data: · Average number of vehicles (overtaking - overtaken) = 1 • Average number of vehicles during trips in opposite direction of traffic flow = 336 · Average journey time when test vehicle is travelling with the stream = 8 min 31 sec. · Average journey time when test vehicle is travelling against the stream = 7 min 24 sec. Average journey time for the above data is min. %3D
The space mean speed (kmph) and density (vehicles/km) of a traffic stream are linearly related. The free flow speed and jam density are 80 kmph and 100 vehicles/km respectively. The traffic flow (in vehicles/h, up to one decimal place) corresponding to a speed of 40 kmph is SIIRDED
2.1 Average Time-Headway and Space-Headway of a given roadway are measured at 29sec and 29m₂ respectively. Calculate the following and show all units; a) Flow; b) Density: c) Speed.
SHOW A FULL SOLUTIONAfter mall opening, the traffic volume (demand) in a certain road section (6-lane divided highway) at the peak hour is forecasted to be 5200vph. An accident blocks 1 lane of the highway. It took 15 minutes till the accident is cleared and capacity is fully restored. Use the following speeddensity relationship: u=112.81-1.75k (u is speed in kph and k is density in vpk/lane) to answer the following questions:a.) Determine the free-flowing speedb.) Compute for the shockwave between the free-flow state and the state where there is capacity reduction due to accident.c.) Compute for the shockwave between state when there is capacity reduction due to accident and the state where vehicles flow with full section capacity
