- Determine the total stopping distance (m) for a road with speed limit of 68kph and grade of 4.7%.Determine the practical stopping distance (m) for a road with speed limit of 50kph and grade of 4.9%.An existing four-lane freeway in rural area is with the following :information Lane width 3.5m, 0.9m lateral clearance, 1800 veh/hr peak hour volume, PHF=0.9, interchange density =0.90, 5% trucks, 5% buses and the road is within a mountainous terrain. Then based on the HCM procedure, the service flow rate (pc/h/In) is
- when desiging an auxiliary lane, the deceleration length need to be determined. Briefly explain what is the deceleration length and how to determine itQ3. A new section of a freeway is to be designed with a free-flow-speed of 65 mph along of 0.75 mile on 5% upgrade. The expected traffic volume is 4200 v/hr. The traffic composition is 15% trucks, 5% recreational vehicles, and 10% buses. The peak hourly factor is 0.9, the unfamiliar driver factor is 0.95. If the design requirement is to target a level of service (B). how many lanes must be provided to satisfy the design requirement?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.
- An undivided multilane highway segment has the following characteristics: • Six lanes (three lanes in each direction); Lane width of 11 ft; • Speed limit of 45 mph; Right shoulders is 4 ft wide; • There are approximately 25 access points over a 2-mile section of this roadway, in each direction. Calculate the FFS at this highway section and then determine the level of service (LOS) when the flow rate is 1100 pc/h/In. (Write the answer for the LOS in the box below).Problem 2. Consider a freeway section with three lanes in each direction and with a length of 1.25mi (2km) and a +5% grade. In this freeway, the directional peak-hour volume is 3,800 veh/h, from which 76 are trucks and 152 are transit buses. The maximum 15-min volume within the hour of analysis is 1,055 vehicles. The lane widths are 12 ft (3.6m), and shoulder widths are 10 ft (3.1m). There are 2 exit ramps and 1 entrance ramp in the 3 miles in the upstream section and 1 exit ramp and 2 entrance ramp in the 3 miles in the downstream section (consider the same ramp density if using international (km) units). All transit buses will be removed from traffic since the transit service will be replaced by a commuter rail service. However, by removing buses, new additional passage car demand is expected. It is estimated that for each removed bus, 7 new passenger cars will be added to the original traffic volume of 3,800 veh/h. Question: Determine the change in speed and traffic density before…55 mph roadway with two northbound through lanes (both are 11 feet in width) through an intersection. Beyond the intersection, the lanes merge into one lane. Please calculate the merge taper AND the distance the sign must be place AHEAD or upstream of the beginning of the merge. Pls hand written solution
- A section of highway has a speed-flow relationship of the form q = au2 + bu. It is known that at capacity (which is 3100 veh/h) the space-mean speed of traffic is 28 mi/h. Determine the speed when the flow is 1500 veh/h and the free-flow speed.A class I two-lane highway is on Rolling terrain with a measured free-flow speed of 90 km/h. and 80% no passing zones. The analysis direction flow rate is 324 veh/h, the opposing direction flow rate is 216 veh/h, and the PHF = 0.87. There are 5% large trucks and 10% recreational vehicles. Determine the level of services.A section in SCTEX has a flow density relationship of q = 75k - 2.7k² where q is the flow and k is the density. what is the space mean speed if the density of the expressway is 15 veh/km
