A single lane road is designed for a speed of 75kmph having a two-way traffic with radius of 350m. Determine the following (use different reaction time for question i, ii & iii).

Stopping Sight Distance for plain road.


Stopping Sight Distance for ascending and descending gradient of 1/75.


Overtaking sight distance. (take interpolated value for ‘a’)


Sketch of maximum overtaking zone distance and sign posts.


Setback distance for SSD (only plain road) and OSD for curve length of 150m and d=2m using above obtained values and also perform checks.

A two-lane highway is currently operating at its two-way capacity in rolling terrain. The traffic stream consists of cars and trucks only. A recent traffic count revealed 720 vehicles (total, both directions) arriving in the most congested 15- min interval. What is the percentage of trucks in the traffic stream based on the ATS service measure? Given: ATS: fG=0.99 when it is rolling terrain, vp>1200 ET= 1.5 when it is rolling terrain, vp>1200

A two-lane minor road intersects a two-lane major road at 90 degrees, forming a four-leg intersection with traffic on the minor road controlled by a yield sign. A building is located 40 ft from the minor road. If the speed limit were 45 mi/h on the major road and 25 mi/h on the minor road, determine the minimum distance that the building can be located from the centerline of the outside lane of the major street.

Traffic on a section of an arterial road is flowing at a space mean speed of 40km/hr. The flow of traffic on the road section can be described using the following equation (where q represents flow in veh/hr and k represents the density in veh/km): q = 50 * (k - k^2/150) A slow moving heavy vehicle turns onto the roadway at 2pm, 2km from the beginning of the arterial road, driving at 15km/hr due to its heavy load. The...

A 6-lane two-way arterial road has a maximum flow of 6,000 vehicles per hour on one direction. It is operating at 3,600 vehicles per hour at time, t=0. A collision occurs, blocking the two lanes, and restricting the flow of the third lane to 1,800 vehicles per hour. After 45 minutes, the MMDA and police have cleared the incident and traffic returns to normal as soon as the queue has already dissipated. a. Determine the maximum length of queue that...
