| Summary: | The increasing of population and development of
technology give a big impact directly to
a place. The roads that link the towns allow people to
move from one place to another place. A proper research
should be carried out to ensure that the roads able
to support the capacity of vehicles during peak hours. The
purpose of this project is to determine the Level of Service (LOS) on two-lane roads in Kuching City. Those roads
are important and were built during early of Kuching City
development. This project focused on Tabuan Road,
Stutong Road, Matang Baru Road,Sultan Tengah Road
and Old 7th Mile Road, and they link the sub-urbans
like Tabuan, BDC, Satok, Matang Jaya, Samariang, Santubong
and Batu 7. According to the methodologies stated
in Highway Capacity Manual 2000 (HCM 2000), some important
data should be determined first before further
analysis is carried out, and those data are traffic volume,
shoulder width, lane width, design speed and access-point
per mile.This project also shows how those data affect
the level of service. |
