for the utility in problem 8-3, will the utility pole be located too close to the road if it is on the outside of a horizontal curve with a radius of 2,000 f?
Because of a visible obstruction along a horizontal curve drivers can only see a stop sign until they are at 250 feet upstream of the sign. Can vehicle stop before the stop line if the perception reaction time is 2.5 seconds and deceleration rate is 11.2 ft./s^2 what should be a reasonable posted speed limit
A two-lane minor road intersects a four-lane undivided major road at 90 degrees,forming a four-leg intersection with traffic on the minor road controlled by a stop sign. The designspeed on the major road is 80 km/h. The approach grade on the minor road is 5%. A single unit truckon the minor road would like to make a left turn onto the major road. Using the AASHTO procedure,determine the minimum sight distance required on the major road for the truck to make a left turnonto the major road.
The main reason why there are a lot of accidents happening on an intersection is THE LACK OF TRAFFIC SIGNALS. Choices: A. True B. False
A 5˚ curve (measured at the centerline of the inside lane) is being designed for a highway with a design speed of 65 mi/h. The curve is on a 2% upgrade, and driver reaction time may be taken as 2.5 seconds. What is the closest any roadside object may be placed to the centerline of the inside lane of the roadway while maintaining adequate stopping sight distance?
Determine the approximate center to center spacing of vehicles in a certain lane if the average speed of the cars using that particular lane is 40 kph and the volume of traffic is 800 vph
1. A road with a design speed of 55 mph has a utility pole located 27 ft from the edge of travel lane. If the ADT for the road is 1,850 vpd and the sideslope slopes down at a 1V:4H grade, is the utility pole located within the clear zone? 2. For the utility in Problem 1, will the utility pole be located too close to the road if it is on the outside of a horizontal curve with a radius of 2,000 ft?
A two-lane minor road intersects with a four-lane major street at 90 deg, forming a 4-leg intersection with traffic on the minor road controlled by a stop sign. The speed limits were 45 mph on the major road, and 25 mph on the minor road. Determine the intersection sight distance (ISD) when a passenger car wants to make a left turn onto the major street. (The grades of both road are low than 3%)
If 5473 vehicles passes a certain lane of road with an average speed of 60kph. determine the appropriate spacing of the vehicles.

(c) The minimum distance of an obstruction from the centerline of the innermost lane.
The design speed of a multilane highway is 60 mi/h. What is the minimum stopping sight distance that should be provided on the road if (a) the road is level and (b) the road has a maximum grade of 4%? Assume the perception-reaction time = 2.5 sec.
A new section of Richmond Highway is being designed as a six-lane facility (three ineach direction) with a two-way left-turn lane. Determine the peak-hour LOS.Traffic data:• Directional design hourly volume = 3600 veh/h• PHF = 0.94• Assumed base free-flow speed = 55 mi/h (88 km/h)Geometric data:• Urban setting• Rolling terrain• Lane width = 11 ft (3.3 m)• Shoulder widths = 4 ft (1.2 m) (right side) and 1 ft (0.3 m) (left side)• Average access point spacing = 12 points per mile on each side
