Based on his observation, he made the following statements throughout the day. Morning Rush: Inbound lanes are congested with slow-moving traffic, Outbound lanes are clear. Midday: Traffic is light, and vehicles move smoothly with a constant flow rate. Evening Rush: Outbound lanes are congested with slow-moving traffic. Inbound lanes are clear New Bypass: A new bypass road opens, increasing traffic on this new route and reducing congestion on the old highway. i) What type of flow is seen in the morning rush on inbound lanes? How would you describe the midday traffic flow? ‘What type of flow occurs in the evening rush on outbound lanes? iv) What type of flow results from the new bypass road opening? 18) ») In the bustling city of Metroville, traffic never seemed to relent. To manage the chaos, the city installed system “X” at various intersections, Ata single intersection, system “X” ensured that traffic lights changed with precision, guiding vehicles efficiently through the intersection. However, as Metroville expanded, the need fora coordinated system became evident. Surprisingly, the head city planner, Sadman, decided to place isolated control systems at closely spaced junctions along busy corridors, intending to reduce congestion and improve safety, Alternatively, traffic engineer Arafat advocated for Demand Responsive Controllers. i) What is System “X"?
