Abstract

In India, traffic conditions are of heterogeneous nature due to variety of vehicles with their different static and dynamic characteristics. It is necessary to convert mixed traffic into homogeneous traffic by using PCU values. Roadway and traffic conditions on urban roads vary considerably across the cities which generally affects the PCU values of different vehicles and the capacity of roadway. This shows the dynamic nature of PCU values. In this paper, an attempt is made to study the effect of static and dynamic PCU values on the capacity analysis of four lane divided urban roads and to study the effect of proportion of two-wheeler on PCU values.
