Traffic Survey Design

The output of the survey are as follows:

a. To determine peak hour and maximum flow;
b. To determine flow distribution;
c. To determine Peak Hour Factor (PHF).

A. SURVEY LOCATION
Selection of survey locations is based on needs, usually on arterial or local roads,
depending on the level of crowds, activity centers, housing, or tourist areas. For this design,
The location where the observations/study of vehicle speed and volume will be held namely
on Panjang Street (Jl. Panjang), precisely at the pedestrian crossing bridge in front of 65
Senior High School (SMA 65), with the altitude of -6.2, longitude of 106.77, and elevation of
14 m above sea level, with one lane of bus lane.

B. SURVEY MECHANISM
 Vehicle classifications that will be calculated for volume are cars, motorbikes, light
trucks, and heavy trucks;
 Calculate the volume of vehicle passing in both directions manually using a counter,
record the results per 15 minutes from 7 am to 7 pm;
 Number of surveyors are 6 per vehicle classifications, 3 at each direction, so this
survey will need 24 surveyors.

D. PEAK HOUR
To determine peak hour, survey time needs to be divided into morning which is 07:00
– 10:00, noon which is 10:00-15:00, afternoon which is 15:00 – 18:00, and evening which is
18:00 – 19:00. The table above which the row is bolded, is the peak hour at certain time
(morning, noon, etc), with certain amount of vehicles. To determine it, we need to determine
the highest number of vehicles passed by in one hour.

E. PEAK HOUR FACTOR

The relationship between the hourly volume and the maximum rate of flow within the
hour is defined by the peak hour factor, as follows:
hourly volume
PHF= max. rate of flow....................................................(1.1)

For standard 15-minute analysis period, the flow distribution is:

V
PHF= 4×V ..................................................................(1.2)
m15

Where :
PHF = peak hour factor;
V = hourly vehicle volume;
Vm15 = maximum 15-minute vehicle volume within the hours.

To calculate PHF, using Eq. (1.2) as follows:

 PHF for Kebon Jeruk-Kelapa Dua Direction at 07:00 – 08.00:

V 5761
PHF= = =0.9
4×Vm15 4×1598
 PHF for Kelapa Dua-Kebon Jeruk Direction at 08:00 – 09:00:
V 5432
PHF= = =0.88
4×Vm15 4×1543

F. MAXIMUM RATE OF FLOW

To determine maximum flow (capacity), the formula is:
V
v= PHF..............................................................(1.3)
Where :
PHF = peak hour factor;
V = hourly vehicle volume (veh/h);
v = maximum rate of flow within the hour (veh/h).
