SPOT SPEED STUDY

1.0 INTRODUCTION

Speed isthe rateof a vehicle

movement. generallyexpressed inkikometerper hou
isa studyoftraffic
(km/h).A spot speed studly atone pointorspot
treefliowvelocity
on a traffic
way usuailyat a midpoint.
Itconsistsof a seriesof individkual
speed
observations.
These observationsare used to estimatethe speed distnibution
of the
entretraic
stream at thatlocation,
under the conditions at the time of
prevailing
the study. Spot speed study can be used to investigatespeeds at problematic
locationsto justifycomplaints
relatedto speedingorroad safetyssues.Other than
that,spot speedstudy alsocan be used tovalidate
suitableposted speedimiton
a new roadbased on its85h percentile
speed.

2.0 OBJECTIVE

a To determine the speed parameters of traffic

(mean, mode, median. 85
percentile.

4.0 PROCEDURE

4.1 Identify location

any suitable at whichthe speed data will
be collected.
4.2 Use the laserspeed gun to measure the
speed of vehicles
accordingto their
respectivevehicle
class:
a) Class1-
Motorcycles
b) Class2-Cars

c) Class3-Vans & Medium Trucks

d) Class4 - LargeTrucks& Buses
Make surethatthe operatorof the lasergun is not seen by the motorists.
4.3 Record allspeed measurements inForm SS1.
4.4 Transfer
the datainForm SS1 to Form S$2.
