Problem. At the train station. The operations manager have scheduled an outbound trips required to go to its place of destination. The vehicle can accommodate 90 passengers per vehicle. And there are three vehicles per train. Fifteen train sets its trip per hour. (Analyze the problem using a Block Diagram to solve the problem. This will serve as your visual aide in analyzing the train problem.) Required: 1. Determine the number of passengers who boarded the train in an hour. (How many commuters boarded the train in an hour?) 2. How many trips were made within an Hour? 3. Determine the train interval. This will serve as its scheduled trips in an Hour. 4. If the scheduled trips / operational hour will start from 6 am, and the last scheduled trip is 10 pm. How many commuters were transported presuming the train is 100 percent fully occupied.

For this exercise, you are to design a roadway that is to carry 100,000 people a day (excluding truck occupants) – 50,000 in design direction. The vehicles that carry these people include; (1) personal vehicles (average occupancy of 1.2 people per car) 2-2 kip single axles, and (2) buses with 2-22 kip single axles (assume they are filled with an average of 40 passengers). There are also trucks on the roadway and all trucks have 1-40 kip triple axle, 1-32 kip tandem axle, and 1-8 kip single axle. You know that the soil CBR is 6, the initial PSI is 4.5 and the TSI is 2.5. Other values to be used:  All drainage coefficients = 1.0  Reliability = 90%  Overall standard deviation of traffic = 0.50  Concrete Modulus of Elasticity = 5.5 million lb/in2  Concrete Modulus of Rupture = 750 lb/in2  PCC load transfer coefficient = 3.0 Design a rigid and flexible pavement, to last 15 years, for a four-lane road (four lanes in design direction) with 400 trucks per day in the design direction, and…
Question: For a two- way bus route, if the demand service is 250 passenger/hr and the route length is 20 km. The route is to be served by 30 seat buses with allow 15 standing passenger with average speed of 40 km/hr. Assuming that all the bus will reach to the destination and leave fully loaded. Also , the bus scheduled must be in 5 minutes increment. Calculate the number of buses required to serve this route ?
A researcher was positioned at the side of a 2-lane rural highway. He recorded the volume of northbound traffic, aggregated into 15 minute intervals. The recorded volumes were 243, 276, 318 and 490 vehicles for the first, second, third, and fourth 15-minute intervals, respectively. Calculate the peak hour factor. Provide your answer to the nearest hundredths.
A freeway with two northbound lanes is shut down because of an accident. At the time of theaccident, the traffic flow rate is 1200 vehicles per hour per lane and the flow remains at this level.The capacity of the freeway is 2200 vehicles per hour per lane when not impacted by an accident.The freeway is shut down completely for 20 minutes after the accident and then one lane is openfor 20 minutes and finally both lanes are opened (40 minutes after the accident). What is theaverage delay per vehicle resulting from the accident (assuming D/D/1 queuing)?

A parking garage has a single processing booth where cars pay for parking. The garage opens at 6:00 A.M. and vehicles start arriving at 6:00 A.M. at a deterministic rate of 3(t)= 6.1-0.22t where 3(t) is in vehicles per minute and t is in minutes after 6:00A.M. What is the minimum constant departure rate (from 6:00 A.M. on) needed to ensure that the queue length does not exceed 10 vehicles? Answer in veh/min.
A certain single lane/on-ramp highway was estimated to have a utilization ratio of 0.893. The rate of arrival of vehicles follows a negative exponential distribution with an average of 296 vehicles per hour. If the service rate is also known to be stochastic, a.Compute the service rate in vehicles/hr. b.Compute the average waiting time at the stop sign per vehicle in seconds. c.Compute the average time spent in the system in seconds.
Two routes are available to carry 1200 vehicles in peak-hour traffic. Route 1 has a posted speed limit of 45 mph and is 5 miles long. The travel time increases by 2x2, where x is vehicles in thousands. Route 2 has a limit of 55 mph and is 6.7 miles long, and the travel time increases by 1.5x. Find the user-equilibrium travel flow and travel time.
