Five-minute average speed in km/h and flow rate in veh/h during 12 hours were collected from a section of the eastbound lanes of Highway 401 in Toronto. The collected data were plotted to form the scatter diagram shown in the figure below. A curve was drawn to describe the general relationship between speed and flow rate q as shown in the figure. 120 300 Speed km/h 60 1000 Flow Rate vel (a) From the above speed-flow rate curve, determine the...

QUESTION THREE On an urban highway, the relationship between vehicle speed and density can be represented by the Greenburg Model as the data in Table 3.1. Due to the roadwork on this highway, the width of both traffic lanes is narrowed and a bottleneck to traffic flow forms. The maximum flow on the unobstructed highway is 5000 vehicles per hour whilst on the section under repair the maximum flow is 4000 vehicles per hour. When the traffic flow approaching the...
Traffic on a three-lane freeway observes a triangular flow-density relationship with free-flow speed vf=100km/h, capacity c=2000veh/h/lane,...
Traffic on a three-lane freeway observes a triangular flow-density relationship with free-flow speed vf=100km/h, capacity c=2000veh/h/lane, jam density kj=150veh/km/lane. Flow in the freeway from upstream is 5000veh/h, while the ramp flow is negligible (almost zero).At 9:45am, an accident occurs at point A. The vehicles involved close one lane of traffic (total capacity reduces to 4000veh/h) for 15min and afterwards the scene is clear (capacity returns to 6000veh/h). Lucy enters the freeway via the ramp at point B at 10:00am. Distance...
