- 9. A segment of a highway was designed for a free flow speed of 90 mph. At the time of observation along the segment, it was recorded that same segment was at its maximum flow. What is the average speed of vehicles at this instant? a) 60 kph b) 45 kph c) 55kph d) 75kph 10. In Problem 9, what is the density of vehicles at maximum flow? a) 1/3 jam density b) 1/4 jam density c) 1/2 jam density d) none of these2. Data obtained from aerial photography showed six vehicles on a 600 ft – long section of road. Traffic data collected at the same time indicated an average time headway of 4 sec. Determine (a) the density on the highway, (b) the flow on the road, and (c) the space mean speed. Ans. k = 52.8 veh/mi, q = 900 veh/h, SMS = 17.0 mi/hTraffic on a three-lane (in each direction) freeway observes the following Greenshields flow relationship: V = 60D(1-D/360) where V is the traffic volume on vehicle per hour, and D is the traffic density in vehicles per mile. At 10:00 am, an accident occurs at point A (in the following Figure). The vehicles involved immediately pull off onto the shoulder of the roadway, but traffic passing the incident slows to 10 mph as drivers survey the damage on the side of the road (sometimes called "spectator slowing"). Lucy enters the freeway via the ramp at point B, also at 10:00 am. Upon entering the freeway, she notes that traffic on the freeway is moving along at about 40 mph.

- In a traffic safety study to reduce pedestrian-vehicle accidents on a level road segment, it was estimated that by a video camera that vehicles moved during deceleration an average distance of 60 m at the moment before hitting pedestrians. If the average speed on this segment is 80 kph, compute the maximum safest speed of vehicles on this segment assuming a deceleration rate of vehicles is 3.4 m/s². Answer: v= 72.7 kphA segment of a highway was designed for a free flow speed of 90 mph. At the time of observation along the segment, it was recorded that same segment was at its maximum flow. What is the average speed of vehicles at this instant?A traffic data has been collected on two points on a highway : Point A and Point B, 450m apart. Observations at Point A shows that five vehicles passed the location at intervals 4, 2, 3, and 3 sec respectively. The speed of the vehicles at point A are 52, 78, 62, 58, 56 km/hr respectively. Assume the speed is maintained until point B. What is the density, in veh/km.
