Intersection Design

An intersection is a location where two or more roads or railways meet or join. The traffic movement is controlled at the intersection that depends on its design and type. It governs the operation, efficiency, speed, capacity, and safety of the highways, airways, and railways. The movement of the pedestrian causes hazards and delays at the intersection.

The velocities of commuter trains A and B are as shown. Knowing that the speed of each train is constant and that B reaches the crossing 3 min after A passed through the same crossing, determine the distance between the fronts of the engines 10 min after A passed through the crossing (Answer in whole number of a meter).
Subject: Transportation Engineering The traffic light just turns green at an intersection. The vehicles leaving the queue at u = 30mph, k = 60vpm and the vehicles from the upstream joining the queue at u = 60mph, k = 30vpm. The density in the queue is 130vpm and the queue length is 50ft. How long does it take for the queue to dissipate? Please help me urgent... Thank you

Assume you are an observer standing at a point along a three-lane roadway. All vehicles in lane 1 are traveling at 48 kph, all vehicles in lane 2 are traveling at 72 kph, and all vehicles in lane 3 are traveling at 97 kph. There is also a constant spacing of 75 m between vehicles. If you collect spot speed data for all vehicles as they cross your observation point, for 30 minutes, what will be the time-mean speed and space-mean speed for this traffic stream?
