6, Traffic Shockwave theory (15%) Vehicles approaching an signalized intersection are traveling at speed 40 miles per hour and the density is about 40 vehicle/miles/lane (vehicle arrival). The red light last about 40 sec. If the saturation flow is 1900 vehhr/lane with a density of 52 veh/miles/hour (queue discharging). and the jam density is 120 veh/mile lane, please determine: a. the queue length at the end of the red light: b. the maximum queue length: c. The time it takes...
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....
Studies have shown that the traffic flow on a two-lane road adjacent to a school eenshields model. A length of 0.5 mi adjacent to a school is 6) (2 0 pts) can be described by the G described as a school zone (see Figure below). The school zone operates for only 20 min. Data collected at the site when the school zone is in operation are given below Section A 0.5 mile Section C Section B School Zone Determine the...
