19 Compute the peak hour factor if the hourly volume of traffic is 1964 veh/hour and the highest 15-min volume is 722. Round off to two decimal places.
Transportation The table shows a 15-minute volume counts during the peak hour on an approach of an intersection
At a specified point on a highway, vehicles are known to arrive according to a Poisson process. Vehicles are counted in 20-second s are 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.
The results of a speed study is given in the form of a frequency distribution table. Find the time mean speed and space mean speed. Speed range, kph Frequency 20-50 10 60-90 40 100-130 140-170 70 150-180 55 43

road construction The 20-year projection of annual average daily traffic of a two-way roadway is 36.500 vehicles. Theroad serves as a highway between a residential area and a business area and the expected directionaldistribution factor is D=0.6. The 30th peak hour factor for the roadway is K=0.15. During an hourly vehiclecount, the following values were registered: 1st 15 minutes: 200 cars, 2nd 15 minutes: 130 cars, 3rd 15minute 230 cars, 4th 15 minutes. 180 cars. Estimate the peak hour factor . What is the designdirectional hourly volume for this route?
Answer questions 13, 14, 15 and 16 using the following paragraph: Vehicles arrive at the carpark of an airport. Vehicles have to queue at the single entrance gate of the carpark at 9:00 AM. The arrival rate is constant at 240 veh/hr. However, between 9:00 and 9:40 AM, the parking ticket machine at the entrance works slowly due to a malfunction, and consequently, each vehicle spends 30 seconds to take the parking ticket. After 9:40 AM, the problem is solved and vehicles spend only 10 seconds at the gate to take the ticket. What is the longest vehicle queue? Select one: a.70 b.64 c.80 d.20 OO
F] Vehicles travel at constant speeds on a one-lane one-way street between sections X and Y. An observer located at point X observes the four vehicles passing point X during a period of 10 seconds. The speeds of the vehicles are measured as 45, 45, 40, and 30mph, respectively. Calculate the average flow, density, time mean speed, and space mean speed.
Through the Walla Walla Road to the entrance of the E-1 parking lot at the University of Washington, vehicles begin to arrive from 7:40 A.M. at a uniform deterministic rate of 480 vph until 8:20 A.M. and from then on at 120 vph. It takes 10 seconds for a vehicle to go through the paying process at the gate. If the parking lot is open at 8:00 A.M., determine (a) when the queue will dissipate, (b) the total delay, (c) the average delay, (d) the maximum queue length (in vehicles), and (e) the longest vehicle delay under FIFO. Show your results graphically. [Hint: D/D/1 analysis]
Please solve this question. Subject: Transportation engineering . Problem No.5 For the speed data in the table below, find the mean speed and the Standard Devaition of speed. Also find the 85th percentile, the 15th percentile and the median (50th percentile) speed from the cumulative frequency curve. Also find the Pace and Mode.
The following travel times are measured for vehicles as they cross the highway 2.0 miles long. Calculate time average speed (TMS) and average speed space (SMS) for this data. Why is SMS always lower than TMS?
4. The statistical data of an urban spot speed study is given below. A set of 130 observations of spot speeds made by timing vehicles through a "Trap" of 88ft. The stopwatch was used to obtain data. The stopwatch data are grouped into 0.2 sec. Classes. The first column of the table shows the midpoint of each group. The second column of the table shows the frequency of the observations. Compute the following statistical values. a) The speed of each time class in mph (show it in the third column) b) The cumulative percent of vehicles traveling at or below indicated speed shown in the third column in mph (show it in the forth column) c) Mean or average speed (time-mean speed), median, mode, standard deviation, standard error of the mean, average time, space-mean speed, variance, 15%, and 85% speed. d) Plot the cumulative percentage, and show the statistical values of item (c) on the graph. e) Plot the frequency distribution curve and show the statistical values on the graph.
