d. Different types of traffic counts are carried out, depending on the data's anticipated use to be collected. Select and describe the method and equipment you will recommend for traffic volume counts for each road below. Give reasons for your recommendations. 1. A private road leading to an industrial development 2. A residential street 3. A rural collector road 4. A section of an interstate highway
Two routes are available to carry 1200 vehicles in peak-hour traffic. Route 1 has a posted speed limit of 45 mph and is 5 miles long. The travel time increases by 2x2, where x is vehicles in thousands. Route 2 has a limit of 55 mph and is 6.7 miles long, and the travel time increases by 1.5x. Find the user-equilibrium travel flow and travel time.
To determine the ADT on the road, the data was collected as shown below on a Tuesday during the following. Consider If the traffic is expected to be 180% from the current traffic up to May 2030, Table 1: Traffic volume at specific time 7:00–8:00 a.m. 8:00 –9:00 a.m 9:00–10:00a.m 10:00–11:00 .m 11:00 –12 noon 150 120 130 50 20
The table below shows data obtained in a travel time study on a section of highway using the moving-vehicle technique. Estimate (a) the travel time and (b) the volume in each direction at this section of the highway. Choices for northward: Tn = 5.9, 6.2, 5.2, 4.9 Vn = 535, 505, 514, 555 Choices for southward: Ts = 6.2, 5.2, 4.9, 5.9 Vs = 555, 535, 505, 517 Help me pls. I will upvote, Badly need your help. Thankyou :)
Question 2 Because the new travel time rate (TTR) from the additional traffic (e.g., 300vph) exceeds the minimum acceptable local standard of 2.0 min/mile, it is proposed to increase the road capacity by 900vph/lane by adding one lane in each direction. Calculate the new travel time rate and traffic volume using: a. The traditional method of traffic impact analysis, and b. The above-mentioned pivot point analysis method. c. Compare the results of the two methods and comment on their significance.
At an impaired driver checkpoint, the time required to conduct the impairment test varies (according to an exponential distribution) depending on the compliance of the driver, but takes 60 seconds on average. If an average of 30 vehicles per hour arrive (according to a Poisson distribution) at the checkpoint, determine the average time spent in the system in minutes/vehicle. Answer in whole number.
