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
The following travel times were observed for 4 vehicles traveling a one km segment of the SLEX. It is required to determine the space mean speed of these vehicles
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
1 Which of these statements are always true? 1. Fully actuated signals are better than pre- timed fixed signals. 2. Traffic flow becomes random upon approaching an intersection when volume is low. 3. Traffic flow becomes random upon approaching an intersection when the distance between two intersections is significantly long enough. 4. Programs of many sets of parameters are better than a program of single set of parameters to suit different traffic flow demand.' O 1, 2 2,3 3, 4 2, 3, 4 1, 2, 3 All of 1, 2, 3, 4 None of 1, 2, 3, 4
Choose the right answer a rural highway on a level terrain has the following traffic composition: 40 % Passenger cars 30 % trucks 20 % buses 10 % recreational vehicles Find the total volume expressed as pcu/hr. if the total volume is 6000 veh/hr. * a-7620 b-7630 c-7640
For a national highway, the free mean velocity and jam density are 80 kmph and 45 Veh/km respectively. A student mistakenly takes the quadratic relation between the velocity and traffic density in Green-Shield model as shown below: V = All the symbols have the usual meaning. Find the magnitude of error in maximum capacity of the road in Veh/hr (upto two places after decimal)
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
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
