Abstract

This paper presents an analysis of the magnitudes of through car equivalents of heavy vehicles and the factors that influence them. The effect of various vehicles types on the rate of saturation flow at signalised intersections is examined as an integral part of a major research project into saturation flows at signalised intersections in Melbourne.  See the paper by CUDDON (1994) on this page.
