The predicted traffic mix of a proposed four-lane urban non-interstate freeway is as follows. Passenger cars = 78% Single-unit trucks: 2-axle, 5,000 lb/axle = 12% 2-axle, 9,000 lb/axle = 4% 3-axle or more, 23,000 lb/axle = 3% Tractor semitrailers and combinations: 3-axle, 20,000 lb/axle = 3% The projected AADT during the first year of operation is 3,900 (both directions). If the traffic growth rate is estimated at 3 percent and the CBR of the subgrade is 7.5, determine the depth of a full- asphalt pavement (in inches) using the AASHTO method and n = 20 years.

- Analysis of an older urban Freeway A section of an old freeway in New York City. It is a four-lane freeway (additional service roads are shown in the picture) with the following characteristics: • Ten-foot travel lanes • Lateral obstructions at 0 ft at the roadside • Interchange density = 2.0 interchanges per mile •Rolling terrain The roadway has a current peak demand volume of 3,500 veh/h. The peak-hour factor is 0.95, and there are no trucks, buses, or RVs in the traffic stream, as the roadway is classified as a parkway and such vehicles are prohibited At what level of service will the freeway operate during its peak period of demand
