(2 points) A horizontal curve on a two-lane highway (12-ft lanes) is designed for 55 mi/h with a 6% superelevation. The central angle of the curve is 50 degrees and the PI is at station 212+67. What is the station of the PT? Determine the length of superelevation runoff and tangent runout for the associated curve transition section (assume a normal, 2% crown). Assume perception-reaction time of 2.5 sec and the deceleration rate for braking (a) is 11.2 ft/sec2

A four-phase traffic signal is to be designed for a major intersection. The critical volume to saturation flow rates (v/s for each phase are given below a) If lost time per phase is 2 seconds, determine the cycle length such that the critical v/c ratio for the intersection is 0.92. The cycle length needs to be rounded up to the nearest multiple of 5 b) For this cycle length, find the effective green times for each phase (Use the HCM method described...
please, make your writing readable Intersection Sight Distance A developer has requested permission to build a large retail store at a location adjacent to the intersection of a divided four-lane major road and a two-lane minor road. Traffic on the minor road is controlled by a stop sign. The speed limits are 35mph and 50mph on the minor and major roads, respectively. The building is to be located at a distance of 65ft from the near lane of one of...

Problem 1 (15vpts) A proposed highway has two tangents of bearings N 75° 54' 36" E and N 53° 22' 30" W. The highway design engineer, attempting to obtain the best fit for the simple circular curve to join these tangents, decides that the external ordinate is to be 78.00 ft. The Pl is at station 65+43.21. Determine: (a) The external angle of the curve (A) (b) The radius of the curve (d) The station of the PC (f) The...
