Increasing vehicular traffic which demands development of road network length has been
observed for the past many decades on Indian roads. In addition to this, improper road …

The desired speed that drivers can drive without being obstructed or influenced by other
road users is characterized as free-flow speed. However, free-flow speed can be influenced …

Free-flow speed (FFS) is the speed of vehicles under low volume conditions, when the
drivers tend to drive at their desired speed without being affected by control delay …

Abstract The HCM (Highway Capacity Manual 2010) classifies two-lane rural highway that
passes through developed areas as 'Class III'and suggests using Percent Free-Flow Speed …

This paper focuses on effects of mixed traffic on capacity of two-lane roads. On the basis of
field data collected on Indian highways, the present paper makes it clear that capacity …

Since transport industry is essentially a service sector component, it is of paramount concern
for the traffic engineers, transport planners and policy-makers alike to understand and …

Indian highways operate under markedly varied traffic and driving conditions when
compared to the highways in other countries. Hence the capacity estimation methods …

The surface condition of pavement influences traffic safety, operating speed,
manoeuverability, driver comfort and service volume. Generally, the service quality provided …

The precise determination of relationship between speed and flow is essential for arriving at
the capacity of a road. The Principal objective of the present study is to evaluate speed-flow …

The economic growth of any country depends on transportation for its overall development.
The highways in India follow heterogeneous traffic conditions in contrast to highways in …
