www Q- 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 S
