Problem 2: Incident Impact Analysis (Deterministic queue analysis) On a section of freeway, an accident occurs at 10:00am at point B. First, both lanes are blocked, then after 15 minutes, one lane is cleared. A 8.8 miles Traffic Sensor Data: A: q = 2700 vph B: one-lane open with q = 1500vph B: two-lane open with q = 3600vph Questions: 1. What is the queue size (# of vehicles) at 10:15? 2. At what time the queue stops increasing? 3. What is the max queue size? 4. Does max queue reach point A if average length of vehicle (plus spacing) is 30 ft? 5. If the second lane opens at 11:00, at what time queue is cleared?
