9. Calculate the estimated free flow speed of a Class II two-lane highway if the field measured mean speed is 56.5 mph and the flow rate during the field data collection was 650 vph and all vehicles are passenger vehicles.
A turning movement count and a saturation flow study were conducted at a major intersection on an expressway with configuration as presented in Fig.1. The peak-hour volumes and saturation flows obtained from the studies for each movement are presented in Tables 1 and 2, respectively. Using the Webster method, determine a suitable preset signal timing for the intersection using a phasing plan that will yield the minimum cycle length out of all possible phasing plans. Also provide a diagrammatic representation of the signal sequence at the intersection. Assume a yellow interval of 3s, all-red interval of 2s and a peak hour factor of 0.95 for all the approaches. Note: No two movements should conflict during the determination of the phasing plan. Tur F Fig.1: Traffic Movements at a Major Intersection N

A traffic engineer at the City of Wahoo Land wants to determine a proper storage capacity for an on-ramp. It was found that a mainline (single lane) and on-ramp traffic arrivals follow Poisson distribution with a mean of 800 passenger vehicles per hour and 150 passenger vehicles per hour, respectively. Assume critical gap is 4.5 seconds for merging vehicles. Determine appropriate storage capacity as a number of vehicles that would prevent any spill over at 95% confidence interval.
