Design Values Perception/Reaction Time = 2 seconds Average Vehicle Length = 25 ft Lane Width = 12 ft Deceleration Rate = 12 ft/sec² Design Speed = 25 mph Start/End Lost Time per phase = 2 sec Saturation Flow Rate = 1900 vphgpl Pedestrian Walk Speed = 3.5 ft/s Minimum Walk Interval = 7 sec Pedestrian perception reaction for walk signal = 3.2 sec 1. The flow rate on a given freeway segment is 1250 vph and the space-mean-speed is 40 mph. Determine: a. the average headway under these conditions b. the average spacing under these conditions c. the equations for the three relationships (q-k, k-u, and q-u) assuming that the flow-density- speed relationship of this freeway segment is described by the Greenshield's model and the free flow speed is 50 mph.
