- i need the answer quicklyarrow_forwarda) A lane merge warning sign (shown below) is being installed near an entrance ramp on a freeway with operating speeds of 80 mph. Calculate the appropriate advance placement distance (to the nearest foot) for the sign assuming a perception-reaction time of 14 seconds for the vehicle avoidance maneuver. b) A curve or turn warning sign is to be installed near a single curve with a 28 mph design speed (per ball-bank indicator) on a rural 2-lane roadway. The prevailing speed of traffic on the approaching tangent section is 62 mph. Calculate the advance placement distance upstream of the curve PC for this sign (to the nearest foot). Also indicate the appropriate sign to be used (curve or turn) and the appropriate safe advisory speed if one is to be posted for this curve.arrow_forwardSubject : Transportation engineering Please give me right solution according to the question...arrow_forward
- An approach to a pre-timed signal has 40 sec of effective green in a 75-second cycle.The approach volume is 700 veh/h and the saturation flow rate is 1600 veh/h.Calculate the time to queue clearance after the start of the effective green, themaximum number of vehicles in the queue, the total vehicle delay per cycle andthe average delay per vehicle assuming D/D/1 queuing.arrow_forwardA two-phase signalized intersection is designed with a cycle time of 100 s. The amber and red times for each phase are 4 s and 50 s, respectively. If the total lost time per phase due to start-up and clearance is 2 s, the effective green time of each phase is s. (in integer)arrow_forwardPlease estimate the minimum cycle length and the green intervals for the following signalized intersection (Figure 7). Please note that the minimum cycle length will be influenced by the design of the phasing diagram. The arrival flow, in pcu/h, for each direction, is illustrated in Figure 7. Please assume any missing values. Lost time following each phase = 2 sec, Amber = 3 sec, Red all = 1 sec, saturation flow 1400 pcu/h. 196, 367, 170 JIL! 400, 140, 215 716 120, 417, 232 400, 433, 184 Figure 7.

- 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?
