Q3b. The 15km Atta Mills road connecting Old Barrier to Kokrobite operates with a capacity of 2250 pcu/hr and can be traversed within 15 minutes under free flow conditions. If a flow of 3100 pcu/hr is assigned to the road based on the capacity-restrained approach, what would be the resultant travel time after the traffic assignment proce ss.
The average normal flow of traffic on cross roads A and B during design period are 400 and 250 pcu per hour; the saturations flow values on these roads are estimated as 1250 and 1000 pcu per hour respectively.

Plz, solve this problem. Transportation Engineering-2 A four-lane highway (2 lanes in each direction) with 3.65m lanes has a horizontal curve designed for a 380 m centerline radius, and a 110 km/hr design speed. The grade is level. Use a driver perception reaction time of 2.5 sec and a vehicle deceleration rate of 3.4 m/sec2. Determine the closest distance any roadside object may be placed to the centerline of the inside lane of the roadway.(note: Do not round any value. Use calculated values).

A segment of rural freeway is being designed for a FFS of 65 mph using 11 ft lanes in a mountainous area. The lateral clearance is nominal (1 ft). The directional (i.e. one-way) design flow rate is expected to be 2,400 passenger cars per hour. How many lanes in one direction will be needed to provide at least a LOS B? Response Feedback: When FFS=65 mph and flow rate=2400 pcphpl the density=36.9 pcpmpl which translates to a LOS E. When FFS=65 mph and flow rate=1200 pcphpl the density=18.5 pcpmpl which translates to LOS C. When FFS-65 mph and flow rate=800 pcphpl the density=12.3 pcpmpl which translates to LOS B.

A developer has applied for a construction permit to build a supermarket at the southeast cornerof an intersection that is formed by a four-lane divided highway in the east-west direction and atwo-lane road in the north-south direction. Traffic on the two-lane road is controlled by a stop signat the intersection. The speed limit on the four-lane highway is 88 km/h. using the sight trianglerequirements at the intersection (Case B1), determine whether permission should be given for theconstruction if the following conditions exist.

QUESTION 1 A four-lane urban freeway segment has a peak demand volume of 3,500 vehicles per hour for the two eastbound lanes. The PHF is 0.95 and there are no trucks, buses or RVs because the freeway is classified as a parkway and such vehicles are prohibited. The segment has 12 ft lanes, no lateral obstructions, 3 ramps within the influence area, and meanders through some beautiful rolling terrain. Assuming the road will be used by commuters and those familiar with the road, what is the flow rate (pcphpl)? Provide your answer to the nearest integer.
QUESTION 3 If the free flow speed is measured in the field, you do not estimate free flow speed using the BFFS and adjustments for lane width, lateral clearance, and presence of ramps. O True False
