Question 2Because the new travel time rate (TTR) from theadditional traffic (e.g., 300vph) exceeds the minimumacceptable local standard of 2.0 min/mile, it isproposed to increase the road capacity by900vph/lane by adding one lane in each direction.Calculate the new travel time rate and traffic volumeusing:a. The traditional method of traffic impact analysis, andb. The above-mentioned pivot point analysis method.c. Compare the results of the two methods and comment on theirsignificance.
