Traffic volume count has been collected on a 2-lane road section which needs upgradation due to severe traffic flow condition. Maximum service flow rate per lane is observed as 1280 veh/h at level of service "C". The Peak Hour Factor is reported as 0.78125. Historical traffic volume count provides Annual Average Daily Traffic as 12270 veh/day. Directional split of the traffic flow is observed to be 60:40. Assuming that traffic stream consists of "All Cars' and all drivers are 'Regular Commuters', the number of extra lane(s) (round off to the next higher integer) to be provided, is

An approach to a pre-timed signal has 40 sec of effective green in a 75-second cycle.The approach volume is 700 veh/h and the saturation flow rate is 1600 veh/h.Calculate the time to queue clearance after the start of the effective green, themaximum number of vehicles in the queue, the total vehicle delay per cycle andthe average delay per vehicle assuming D/D/1 queuing.
An observer notes that an approach to a pretimed signal, the time it will take the queue to clear after the start of the effective green (assuming that approach capacity exceeds arrivals and D/D/1 queuing applies) is 60 s. If the saturation flow rate is 1440 veh/h and the effective red time is 40 seconds, what is the maximum number of vehicles in a queue in a given cycle?
Compute the average approach delay per cycle, given the saturation flow rate of 2400 veh/h and is allocated 24 seconds of effective green in an 80-second signal cycle. Flow at the approach is 500 veh/h. Assume the traffic flow accounts for the peak 15-min period and that there is no initial queue at the start of the analysis period.

Q2: What are the assumptions for using the equations in the queue test? Q3: A signalized intersection, of 105 sec cycle length, the east approach has an effective green time of 20 sec, and the percentage of vehicles arriving during green time is 28%. The west approach has 16 sec green time and 32% of vehicles arriving during the green time. Determine which approach is best coordinated with the upstream signal.
A rail transit system has prescribed the following factors:1. Peak hour demand = 30000 passengers/hr2. Minimum required speed = 55 ft/sec3. Deceleration = 3 ft/sec24. Safety factor = 1.455. Vehicle length = 80 ft6. Allowable vehicle capacity = 150 pass/veh7. Guideway utilization factor = 0.838. Minimum headway = 110 secHow many cars should the train consist of to provide adequate passenger capacity?
Determine whether a T intersection (one leg on the minor approach) with the hourly volume data satisfy MUTCD Warrant 3 (peak-hr vehicular volume) for signalization. All approaches have one lane entering the intersection. For the warrant that is met, explain how the warrant is met (rules applied, hours in which the volume criteria were met, etc.) and refer to necessary graphs and tables. The major street speed limit is 60 km/h, and the minor street speed limit is 40 km/h.
The following calculations are taken at the approach of an intersection during the morning rush hour. Determine (a) the hourly volume, (b) the peak flow rate in one hour, and (c) the peak hour factor.
