Average increase in Traffic During Harvesting Season (Total Traffic in Peak Season -
Traffic During Non-Harvesting Season) nT = 1952
Average Annual Daily Traffic AADT = T + ((1.2 x nT x t)/365) AADT = 976 + (1.2 x 1952 x 75 ) / 365 = 1457
It is Presumed that road will open for traffic after 1 Year Therefore ADT after 1 year. By
considering 6% growth rate ADT = AADT x (1+ 0.06)^n = 1457 x (1.06) ^ 1 = 1545
For Pavement Design Consider the Proportionate value of HCV, MCV, SWC out of ADT
