An 8-lane freeway has a peak hour volume of 2800 vehicles. One
particular 8-mile section of the freeway with free flow speed of
60.255 mph and a peak hour factor of 0.9. Seven percent (7%) of the
peak hour traffic is single unit trucks and three percent (3%) is
tractor trailers. Assume commuter drivers and rolling terrain.

Determine Level of Service an urban freeway section, if the BFFS
= 70 mph. The data are as follows:
Number of lanes: 4 (one direction)
Lane width = 12 ft.
Lateral clearance =5 ft. (right side)
Interchange density = 1 per mile
Percent trucks = 14
Percent RVs = 4
PHF = 0.95

An urban circumferential freeway is to be designed on the basis
of the following information: design year average annual daily
traffic, AADT = 75,000 veh/day; the estimate of the percent of
traffic occurring during the peak-hour is 9%; the percent of
peak-hour traffic in the heavier direction is estimated to be 55%.
The traffic mixture is expected to be similar to the current
mixture of 7% trucks, 3% buses and no recreational vehicles. The
PHF is estimated to be 0.9....

A westbound section of freeway currently has three 12-ft wide
lanes, a 6-ft right shoulder, and no ramps within 3 miles upstream
and downstream of the segment midpoint. It is on rolling terrain
with 10% heavy vehicles and is operating at capacity with a
peak-hour factor of 0.900. If the road is expanded to four 11-ft
lanes with a 2-ft right shoulder, and traffic after the expansion
is projected to increase by 10% with the same heavy vehicle
percentage and...
