38 Q2. A researcher has developed a speed-density model represented
39 by a linear equation as follows:

40 V= 55.711 - 0.506 K
41 where;
v = speed (km/h) and k = density
42
(vehicles/km).

Q4. A rural freeway has two 3.6 m lanes in each direction and a traffic stream
69
composed with trucks and buses. This is a section upgrade on freeway
facility and there are no lateral obstructions. Inter­changes are
70 approximately 3 km apart. The adjustment factor for the character of the
traffic stream is 0.90. Determine the level of service.
