NEED NEED ANSWER ASAP !!!
A multilane highway (two lanes in each direction) is on level terrain. The free-flow speed has been measured at 45 mi/h. The peak-hour directional traffic flow is 1300 vehicles with 8% heavy vehicles. If the peak-hour factor is 0.85, determine the highway’s level of service. Answer: LOS:C

Traffic on a freeway gives a Greenshield's traffic flow relationship expressed as: Q = 60k-0.16667k? At 10AM, an accident occurs 4 km downstream of an access ramp. The vehicles pull onto the shoulder of the roadway, but traffic passing the accident area slows to 10 kph as drivers survey the damage on the side of the road. A patrol car enters the freeway via access ramp, also at 10AM. Upon entering the freeway, the patrol car notes that traffic on the freeway is moving along at about 40 kph. Determine the following: 1. Capacity flow of the highway 2. Traffic shockwave created by the road accident 3. Time in AM the patrol car will reach the accident zone 4. Plotted traffic shockwave line in the Q-k traffic model diagram
Traffic volume count has been collected on a 2- lane road section which needs upgradation due to severe traffic flow condition. Maximum service flow rate per lane is observed as 1280 veh/h at level of service 'C'. The Peak Hour Factor is reported as 0.78125. Historical traffic volume count provides Annual Average Daily Traffic as 12270 veh/day. Directional split of the traffic flow is observed to be 60: 40. Assuming that traffic stream consists of 'All Cars' and all drivers are 'Regular Commuters', the number of extra lane(s) (round off to the next higher integer) to be provided, is

An intersection has a three-phase signal with the movements allowed in each phase and corresponding analysis and saturation flow rates shown in the table below. Assume the lost time is 4 seconds per phase and a critical intersection v/c of 0.90 is desired.

B- A traffic count was conducted to a rural highway if the peak 15 mints 800 vehicles and peak hourly factor (PHF) 0.95 the directional distribution (35:65)% and traffic composition is 75%p.c and 25%truck, 1-Estimate the number of lanes required ? (capacity = 2000 PC/hr/1 lane) 2- Estimate Level of service if the free flow speed 110 km/hr.
The space mean speed (kmph) and density (vehicles/km) of a traffic stream are linearly related. The free flow speed and jam density are 80 kmph and 100 vehicles/km respectively. The traffic flow (in vehicles/h, up to one decimal place) corresponding to a speed of 40 kmph is SIIRDED
