1. A total of 5,000 person-trips are made between a commercial district and a residential area during the PM peak hour. Commuters have two modes available, including private automobile and a light- rail transit system. The following utility function was calibrated using data from the study area from users of these two modes: U 3D -0. 50T1 — 0. 50T, — 2. 00С Data summarizing the operational characteristics and costs associated with each mode are provided in the following table. Private Light-Rail Parameter Automobile Transit = in-vehicle travel time (min.) 10 T1 T2 = excess time (min.) C = out-of-pocket cost (dollars) 15 5 10 5.00 2.00 Determine how many trips will be made by each travel mode based on these characteristics.
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?

20. Compute the peak hour factor if the hourly volume of traffic is 1978 veh/hour and the highest 15-min volume is 780. Round off to two decimal places.
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
