Traffic flow on a three-lane (one direction) freeway can be described by the Greenshields model. One lane of the three lanes on a section of this freeway will have to be closed to undertake an emergency bridge repair that is expected to take 2 hours. It is estimated that the capacity at the work zone will be reduced by 25 percent of that of the section just upstream of the work zone. The mean free flow speed of the highway is 65 mi/h and the jam density is 125 veh/mi/In. If it is estimated that the demand flow on the highway during the emergency repairs is 85 percent of the capacity, using the deterministic approach, determine the following. (a) the maximum queue length (in veh) that will be formed veh (b) the total delay (in h) h (c) the number of vehicles that will be affected by the incident veh (d) the average individual delay (in min) min

- Consider the problem of traffic flow on a three-lane (one direction) freeway which can be described by the Greenshields model. One lane of the three lanes on a section of this freeway will have to be closed to undertake an emergency bridge repair that is expected to take several hours. It is estimated that the capacity at the work zone will be reduced by 30 percent of that of the section just upstream of the work zone. The mean free flow speed of the highway is 60 mi/h and the jam density is 130 veh/mi/ln. It is estimated that the demand flow on the highway during the emergency repairs is 86 percent of the capacity.

- A six-lane freeway (three lanes in each direction) in mountainous terrain has 10-ft lanes and obstructions 5 ft from the right edge. There are zero ramps within three miles upstream of the segment midpoint and one ramp within three miles downstream of the segment midpoint. The traffic stream consists of mostly commuters with a peak hour factor of 0.84, peak-hour volume of 2500 vehicles, and 4% recreational vehicles. What is the level of service?A six-lane freeway (three lanes in each direction) in a scenic area has a measured free-flow speed of 55 mi/h. The peak-hour factor is 0.80, and there are 8% large trucks and buses and 6% recreational vehicles in the traffic stream. One upgrade is 5% and 0.5 mi long. An analyst has determined that the freeway is operating at capacity on this upgrade during the peak hour.
