The Lane That Carried 1,800 veh/h, Not 1,227

The spacing was 132 ft per vehicle, but 45 mph was treated as 45 ft/s. Correct unit conversion gives density 40 veh/mi and flow 1,800 veh/h/lane.

Traffic Flow Fundamental Relation5–10 min

The Curve That Needed 833 ft, Not 1,190

The design speed was correct, but superelevation was omitted. Including both superelevation and side friction reduced the required curve radius to about 833 ft.

Horizontal Curve Radius5–10 min

QUICK ANSWER

What should I practice in FE Transportation Engineering?

Practice the calculations, assumptions, constraints, and failure modes that appear around this topic. Each question here is designed to test whether you can apply the concept when the obvious calculation is not the whole engineering decision.
