Vehicles are driving at 35 miles/hour in a roadway. A slow truck joins the traffic at 15 mile/hour for 1.5 miles. Assume the following q-k model and traffic parameters. Uf=60; Kj=120;qcap=1800; q=60k-0.5k^2. Using shockwave analysis, determine the following: Q1: When the truck pulls off the road, how long is the queue behind the truck? Q2: After the truck pulls off the road, how long it takes for the queue to disappear?

Intersection Design

An intersection is a location where two or more roads or railways meet or join. The traffic movement is controlled at the intersection that depends on its design and type. It governs the operation, efficiency, speed, capacity, and safety of the highways, airways, and railways. The movement of the pedestrian causes hazards and delays at the intersection.
