    The document presents traffic count data from two approaches at an intersection over a one hour period from 4pm to 5pm. Table 1 shows counts for the eastbound approach, where the peak 15-minute volume was 219 vehicles and peak 15-minute flow rate was 876 vehicles/hour. The peak hour factor for the eastbound approach was calculated as 0.8447. Table 2 shows similar data for the southbound approach, where the peak 15-minute volume was 65 vehicles and flow rate was 260 vehicles/hour. The peak hour factor for the southbound approach was calculated as 0.8769.

    The peak 15-min volume on eastbound approach is 80+73+66=219 veh.


    By simply multiplying 15-min volume with four, peak 15-min flowrate was
    found as 876 veh/hr. For finding PHF following formula was used:

    PHF=

    V
    V V m 15

    PHF four eastbound approach was found as:
