Ina road-intersection near Dhaka, average 120 cars make right-hand turns in every hour. Road planner wants to put in a 3-vehicle right- hand turn lane in the intersection to avoid blocking of thru traffic. Determine if 3-vehicle right-hand turn lane satisfy the following design criteria: Red light time of right-hand traffic is 30 seconds Right-hand turn lane must be sufficient 90% of the time.

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.
A highway section has a grade of -2%, a school zone is operated for 30 minutes before and after school time, the posted speed during the school zone will be 25 km/hr. A new sign will be installed to aware drivers about the school zone with a flashing light. Find the proper distance from the school zone that the sign should be located in a meter. Knowing that the traffic stream has a posted speed of 80 km/hr and the driver can recognize 1 in. of sign letter from 20 ft. The engineer summary for a spot speed study shows that there is a lot of speed violation, that some drivers drive 10% higher than the posted speed. The sign has a height of 5 in. Use default vehicle deceleration. one decimal answer for example 00.0, just a ut of Jestion value. Answer Next page 254 AM ROOD ENG 4/13/2021 W ProBook 4540s
14. Free-flow speed of vehicles on a road section is 88 km/h. Jammed density is 228 veh/km. Determine the traffic density on the road if traffic flow is at a maximum level. Also determine the possible maximum flow for the road section and the average speed of vehicles at that maximum traffic flow rate. (114 veh/km, 5016 veh/h, 44 km/h)
Answer True/False to the following: 1) A strong degree of uniformity in the design of traffic facilities guarantees uniform reactions from drivers. 2) The traffic signal warrant that several agencies do not recommend using is the Peak Hour Traffic Volume warrant. 3) It is reasonable to use a higher unit extension time value on an actuated signal approaches with higher speeds. 4) According to the Roundabout Design Guide volume-to-capacity ratio of 0.85 must be the threshold for acceptable operation at a roundabout entry.

A rail transit system has prescribed the following factors:1. Peak hour demand = 30000 passengers/hr2. Minimum required speed = 55 ft/sec3. Deceleration = 3 ft/sec24. Safety factor = 1.455. Vehicle length = 80 ft6. Allowable vehicle capacity = 150 pass/veh7. Guideway utilization factor = 0.838. Minimum headway = 110 secHow many cars should the train consist of to provide adequate passenger capacity?
Find level of service (LOS) for an old freeway in Basrah city with the following characteristics: (free flow speed (FFS) = 65 (mi/hr), peak hour factor (PHF) = 0.80, umber on lanes (N) = 3 in one direction, factor of heavy vehicles (fív) = 0.90 and traffic volume (V) = 2200 (veh/hr).
An intersection has four symmetrical approaches. The width (curb-to-curb distance) of each approach is 57 ft. If the length of the design vehicle is 19.4 ft and the design speed is 35 mph, what should be the all-red time? Group of answer choices 1.25 sec 1.75 sec 1.50 sec 2.0 sec
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. Provide a diagram for your solution.Major road lane width = 3.6 mMinor road lane width = 3.3 mMedian lane = 2.8 mDesign vehicle is a passenger carApproach grade = 2%Maximum feasible distance building from the center of the nearest lane of four-lane road = 5.4 mMaximum feasible distance building from the center of the nearest lane of two-lane road = 16.5 m
Determine whether a T intersection (one leg on the minor approach) with the hourly volume data satisfy MUTCD Warrant 3 (peak-hr vehicular volume) for signalization. All approaches have one lane entering the intersection. For the warrant that is met, explain how the warrant is met (rules applied, hours in which the volume criteria were met, etc.) and refer to necessary graphs and tables. The major street speed limit is 60 km/h, and the minor street speed limit is 40 km/h.
