2. Use HCS and do the following problem. Then do calculations manually to understand the steps. Compare the results. (6 points)
Assume PHF is 1.0, the percentage of heavy vehicles in any flow is 20\%, and traffic is comprised of commuters. Interchange density is 2 per mile. The measured free flow speed on freeway is 70 mph and on the ramps is 50 mph .
Traffic volumes are:
A-C (Freeway to freeway) volume \(=2600\mathrm{vph}\)
A-D (Freeway to ramp) volume \(=600\mathrm{vph}\)
B-C (Ramp to freeway) volume \(=700\mathrm{vph}\)
B-D (Ramp to ramp) volume \(=1100\mathrm{vph}\)
Assume LB=1800 ft
