Q5) (15 marks) a) A traffic stream has mean headways of 2.4 sec. If the jam density is 64 veh/km, the optimum speed is 50 km/h, and the flow is 1,500 veh/hr, then what is the capacity of the highway (veh/hr)? (5 marks) b) Redo the above for jam density to be 60 veh/km and 70 veh/km. (5 marks) c) Discuss the effect of changes in optimum speed on the capacity of the highway. (5 marks)

3. Traffic on an approach of a signalized intersection is traveling at 35 mph with a density of 46 veh/mi/In. The red phase of the signal is 30 sec. If the saturation flow is 1900 veh/h/In with a density of 52 veh/mi/In and the jam density is 125 veh/mi/In, determine the length of queue at he end of the red phase. (15 points). Determine the speed of backward recovery wave. (10 points).

Consider a freeway segment with capacity of 8000 veh/hr, free-flow speed of 70 mph, and jam density of 200 veh/mi. The demand of this segment is constant at 7800 vel/hr. During the first hour of the hour morning peak, merging traffic entering from the on-ramp has priority thus it restricts the number vehicles that can pass through to 7500 veh/hr. This restriction ends after the first hour of the morning peak. a) Calculate the maximum excess accumulation b) Calculate the...

(15 points) 7.Traffic flows at 2,000 veh/hr in the direction of increasing z on a one-directional road. At location x-0 the road narrows from 2 to I lanes. We assume that a flow-density curve, triangular in shape, defines the possible traffic states at all points in time-space. The following parameters apply to the l lane section: free flow speed 80 km/hr, jam density k.-75 veh km, and critical density k, 25 veh/km. a. Plot the flow vs. density...

Traffic flow on a one-lane road section (no passing is allowed) has the capacity of 1,000 vehicles/hour and free-flow speed of 40 km/hour. There exists a railway grade crossing at the end of the road section. On one day, a train is passing through the crossing and the gate is closed. Consequently the vehicles are required to stop behind the gate while the train is passing. Three minutes later, the gate is opened and the vehicles immediately start moving again....
