    ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS

    All parts of a question should be answered at one place.


    In case of any missing data, assume and state it clearly
    Q.No. Particulars Marks

    1A The phase diagram with flow values of an intersection with three phases is shown
    in the figure below. The lost time and yellow time for the first phase is 4 and 4 4
    seconds respectively. For the second phase the lost time and yellow time are 3.5
    and 4 seconds respectively. For the third phase the lost time and yellow time are
    2.5 and 3 seconds respectively. If the cycle time is 150 seconds, show by sketches
    the time allocated to green, yellow and red for two phases. 300

    The cycle time of an intersection is 100 seconds, the green time for a phase is 45
    seconds, and corresponding yellow time is 5 seconds. If the headway is 3
    seconds/vehicle, the start-up lost time is 3 seconds/phase, and the clearance lost
    time is 5 second/phase. If all lanes are equally utilized, find the capacity of
    movement for a three lane approach road.
    2 The width of approaches for a rotary intersection is 12m. The entry and exit width 5
    at the rotary is 10m. Table below gives the traffic from the four approaches,
    traversing the intersection. Find the capacity of the rotary. (Assume, weaving width
    is 25% of weaving length).

    way traffic road. find (i) OSD (ii) min. and desirable length of overtaking zone
    (iii) show the sketch of overtaking zone with location of sign post (Assume:
    a=0.99 m/sec2)

    5 A national highway passing through a rolling terrain has two horizontal curves of 5
    radius 450 m and 150m. Design the required super elevation for the curves as per
    IRC guidelines. (Assume: The ruling design speed for NH passing through a rolling
    terrain is 80 kmph. The coefficient of lateral friction f = 0.15. The maximum
    permissible super elevation e = 0.07.)
