Supposed that

for a

certain

pair

of

origin and

destination

there are

3 routes

to choose

from,

with the trip

characteristics

as

listed

in Table

Q2.

Considering

that

a

total

of 10,000

trips

are

generated

in

the moming

of

a

typical

a)

One of

the effective measures

to

deal with heavy

right

or

left

turning

movement

is

the

application

of restriction

of turning

movement

to

smoothen the

traffic

flow. Illustrate

in

sketches

how

the

concept

is

implemented in

the

following

conditions.

-

Heavy right

turn from major

to minor

roads

-

Heavy

righ from

minor to major

roads

(10

marks)

b) The basic concept

in

transportation

engineering

is to move

people

rather

than vehicle.

Justifu how we

can move

the

same

number

of

people

but

with less

congestion

on the road

with the following

strategies:
