capacity 1500 veh/h
free flow speed 60 km/hr
on a one lane traffic road, there exists a railway grade grossing
at the end of the road section. on one day, a train is passing
through the crossing and the gate is cloased. consequently the
vehciles are required to stop behind the gate while the train is
passing. three min later the gate opens and the vehicles leave
rigth away.
traffic flow in normal traffic conditions is characterized by a volume of 640 veh/h and a density of 20 veh/km. using the shock wave theory, determine the length of the platoon when the gate is opened?
and how long would it take for the platoon to dissipate?

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....

Q3. A Class I two-lane highway has a base free-flow speed of 110 km/h. Lane width is 3.35 m and shoulder width is 0.6 m. There are 5 access points per km. The roadway is located in rolling terrain with 40% no-passing zones. The two-way traffic volume is 600 veh/hr with PHF = 0.86. The directional split is 60/40. Traffic includes 8% trucks and 2% recreational vehicles. Determine the level of service (LOS).

Traffic on a three-lane freeway observes a triangular flow-density relationship with free-flow speed vf=100km/h, capacity c=2000veh/h/lane, jam density kj=150veh/km/lane. Flow in the freeway from upstream is 5000veh/h, while the ramp flow is negligible (almost zero).At 9:45am, an accident occurs at point A. The vehicles involved close one lane of traffic (total capacity reduces to 4000veh/h) for 15min and afterwards the scene is clear (capacity returns to 6000veh/h). Lucy enters the freeway via the ramp at point B at 10:00am. Distance...
