. A roundabout is provided with an average entry width of 8.4 m, width of weaving section as 14 m and length of the weaving section between channelizing islands as 35 m. The crossing traffic and total traffic on the weaving section are 1000 and 2000 PCU per hour respectively. The nearest rounded capacity of the roundabout (in PCU per hour is)
Compute the peak hour factor if the hourly volume of traffic is 1800 vehicles/hour and the highest 15-min. volume is 750. A 0.3 В 0.5 0.6 0.4
A traffic lane has one way traffic flow at a stream speed of 40 Kmph. The average space gap average length of vehicle as 5m, the theoretical capacity calculated with above data in vehicles per hour per lane will be :
During the peak hour, an urban freeway segment has a traffic flow of 6,000 veh/h, with 4,000 vehicles with one occupant and 2,000 vehicles with two occupants. The freeway has five lanes, four of which are unrestricted opening to all vehicles regardless of vehicle occupancy and one lane that is restricted for use by vehicles with two occupants. Link performance functions for the length of this freeway segment are tu = 30+ 0.5vu for the unrestricted lanes and tr = 20+2vr for the restricted lane, where t’s are in minutes and v’s are in 1,000 vehicles. Solve for the distribution of traffic among the lanes using the SO principle and compare the savings in person hours relative to a UE solution, assuming that the compliance is perfect and that no single-occupant vehicles use the restricted lanes.

6. A shared three-way pedestrian-bicycle facility has a width of 10 ft and carries a peak pedestrian flow of 500 p/15 min. The bicycle flow rate is 150 bicycles/h in the same direction as the pedestrians, and 160 bicycles/h in the opposite direction. The average pedestrians' speed is 4 ft/see, and that for bicycles is 8 ft/see. a) Determine the pedestrians' LOS b) Determine the LOS for the shared bicycle paths
