Question 3

What is the theoretical capacity (in vehicle/hour/lane) of a traffic lane with one way traffic flow at a stream speed of 50 kmph?
[Assume the average space gap between vehicles to follow the relation Sg = 0.278 V.t. where 'V' is the stream speed in kmph, 't' is the average reaction time = 0.7 sec, average length of vehicles = 5.0 m]

Question 4

A linear relationship is observed between speed and density on a certain section of a highway. The free flow speed is observation to be 80 km per hour and the jam density is estimated as 100 vehicles per km length. Based on the above relationship, the maximum flow expected on this section and the speed at the maximum flow will respectively be
