Example: A busy travel corridor connecting a suburb with the city center is served by two routes having a typical travel time function, t =a + b(q/c), where t is the time in minutes, q is the vehicular flow in veh/hr, and c is the capacity of the route in veh/hr. The existing characteristics of the two routes is as follows: Route a b c 1 34 3000 2 4 2 4000 (a) If the existing peak-hour demand is 5000 veh/hr, what is the traffic distribution on the two routes? (b) If repair work on Route 1 reduces its capacity to 2000 veh/hr, what is likely to be the traffic distribution on the two routes for the duration of the repairs? (c) It is anticipated that after the repairs are completed on Route 1, its capacity will be 4200 veh/hr. How will this affect the distribution.

Vehicles arrive at a toll system at random at an average rate of 15 vehicles per minute. If there are 2 toll booths each at random at an average of 6 seconds after services are done for every vehicle at the toll system. Calculate the following: 5.1 Average length of queue of vehicles5.2. Average waiting time in a queue5.3. Average time spent in a queue5.4. If one toll ticket booth is closed and service time is reduced by 4 seconds, what are the system’s Q, W and T? And plot the arrival distribution curve for this traffic condition

The spot speed data on the corridor was collected as shown in the Table below. Vehicle # Spot speed (mph) 1 2 3 4 45 45 45 40 If X is the value of time-mean speed, and Y is the value of space-mean speed. Then, report the value of X minus Y, correct to 1 digit after the decimal.
It is observed that on an average 4000 vehicle trips take place in a large urban area in the afternoon on Sundays for visiting malls. The characteristics of four main centers are as follows: Shopping Center Number Commercial Floor Space (thousands of m²) Distance from Residential Area (km) 1 4 20 9 15 3 8 30 4 14 60 If a logit model is estimated with coefficients -0.283 for distance and 0.172 for commercial space (in thousands of m2), how many shopping trips will be made to each of the four shopping centers?

After 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 took15 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 answerthe following questions:a.) Determine the free-flowing speedb.) Compute for the shockwave between the free-flow state and the state where there iscapacity reduction due to accident.c.) Compute for the shockwave between state when there is capacity reduction due toaccident and the state where vehicles flow with full section capacitySHOW FULL SOLUTION
At a specified point on a highway, vehicles are known to arrive according to a Poisson process. Vehicles are counted in 20-second intervals, and vehicle counts are taken in 120 of these time intervals. It is noted that no cars arrive in 18 of these 120 intervals. Approximate the number of these 120 intervals in which exactly three cars arrive.
5- Traffic volume study was conducted in a section of road in month of April the following information's was obtained ( HEF=18, POV =650 veh/h, total weekly volume =72450 veh/week, total yearly volume = 23770 veh lyear, MEF =1/2 DEF). So, the ADT of this month? (Assume total daily volume = average daily volume) * O 7923 veh 850 veh 660 veh O 1240 veh
A gasoline service station sees on average 27 arrivals of vehicles every one hour in the morning. The average service time is 100 seconds. If one particular bank employee leaves his house at 8:15AM and it is just 35 minute drive to a small single gas station and then a 45 minute drive to his office, what time in AM he is expected to arrive at the bank?
