Q2-B) For safety purposes, the mall has decided to builld an exclusive pedestrian walkway so the bus users can reach the mall without going through the parking area. If you were asked to design this walkway and were provided with the following design data and criteria: Desired level of service is LOS B Average pedestrian speed - 3.5 km/hr. • Pedestrian peak hour volume in peak direction - 973 pedestrians. No pedestrian platooning was observed: and • The grade of the walkway is assumed to be level. Determine the minimum required width of the walkway

6. A shared three-way pedestrian-bicycle facility has a width of 10 ft and carries a peak pedestrian flow of 500 p/15 min. The bicycle flow rate is 150 bicycles/h in the same direction as the pedestrians, and 160 bicycles/h in the opposite direction. The average pedestrians' speed is 4 ft/see, and that for bicycles is 8 ft/see. a) Determine the pedestrians' LOS b) Determine the LOS for the shared bicycle paths

Three designs have been proposed to improve traffic flow at a major intersection in a heavily traveled suburban area. The first alternative involves improved traffic signaling. The second alternative includes traffic-signal improvements and intersection widening for exclusive left turns. The third alternative includes extensive reconstruction, including a grade separation structure. The construction costs, as well as annual maintenance and user costs, are listed in the following table for each alternative. Determine which alternative is preferred based on economic criteria if the analysis period is 20 years and the annual interest rate is 15%. Show that the result is the same using the present worth, equivalent annual cost, benefit–cost ratio, and rate-of-return methods.
