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)

2. Studies show that on a specific northbound section of a highway the speed-density relationship is: u= u(1-(k/k;) -5) The highway's capacity is 3800 veh/h and the jam density is 140 veh/mi. What is the speed of the traffic at capacity, and what is the free-flow speed?

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...

Five-minute average speed in km/h and flow rate in veh/h during 12 hours were collected from a section of the eastbound lanes of Highway 401 in Toronto. The collected data were plotted to form the scatter diagram shown in the figure below. A curve was drawn to describe the general relationship between speed and flow rate q as shown in the figure. 120 300 Speed km/h 60 1000 Flow Rate vel (a) From the above speed-flow rate curve, determine the...

A rural highway has capacity of 5.000 veh/h. One morning, traffic flows at constant rate of 3.000 veh h when. suddenly. at 8:00am. a major accident takes place. and the highway is totally hour blocked for 20 minutes. Then it starts to operate at reduced capacity of 2.000 yeh/hr for one which improves to 3,000 yely h during the next hour, and finally at 10:20am the full capacity is restored a) What is the maximum length b) What time does...

(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...
