Highway Safety

Proper highway safety refers to the methods or rules that prevent highway travelers from being killed or severely injured. Proper highway safety measures help to protect motorists, cyclists, pedestrians, passengers on public transport, and so on.

An observer counts 360 veh/h at a specific highway location. Assuming that the arrival of vehicles at this highway location is Poisson distributed, estimate the probabilities of having at least 5 vehicles arriving over a 25-second time interval. choices: 8.57%, 10.88%, 4.20%, 6.89%
After mall opening, the traffic volume (demand) in a certain road section (6-lane divided highway)at the peak hour is forecasted to be 5200vph. An accident blocks 1 lane of the highway. It took15 minutes till the accident is cleared and capacity is fully restored. Use the following speeddensity relationship: u=112.81-1.75k (u is speed in kph and k is density in vpk/lane) to answerthe following questions:a.) Determine the free-flowing speedb.) Compute for the shockwave between the free-flow state and the state where there iscapacity reduction due to accident.c.) Compute for the shockwave between state when there is capacity reduction due toaccident and the state where vehicles flow with full section capacitySHOW FULL SOLUTION

The traffic from a suburban area to a city uses the following five shorter routes, as shown below. Access from Suburban Route 4 Route 1 Route 5 Route 2 Route 3 Access to City The models below show the travel time as a function of traffic flow on each route. t₁ = 18 + 4.5 x₁ t₂ = 21+ 7.0 x₂ t3 = 26 + 4.9 x3 t4 = 29+ 3.4 x4 t5 = 34 + 0.3 x5 Where: t; is travel time on route 'i' (in minutes) and x; is traffic flow on route 'i' (in 1000 vehicles).
