TWO LANE HIGHWAY
 DEFINITION
• A two – lane highway is an undivided highway with two lanes, one for use by traffic in
each direction of travel
• Lane changing and passing is possible only in the phase of oncoming traffic in the
opposing traffic
• As traffic volume increase, the ability to pass will decrease
• There are two performance measures to describe service quality for two lane two way
highways:
-Percent time spent following (PTSF)
- Average travel speed (ATS)
 CHARACTERISTIC
1. Serve a variety of function
• Efficient mobility – Consistent high speed operations and infrequent passing delays
• Accessibility – To remote or sparsely populated areas
• Scenic and recreational – Enjoy environment without traffic interruptions/delays
• Small towns and communities – maintain speed close to posted speed limits
2. Divided into three classes
 CLASSIFICATION
Three classes based on functions
• First two address rural two-lane highways
• Class I: Motorists expect to travel at high speeds
• Major intercity routes, primary connectors of major traffic generators, daily
commuter routes
• Class II: Access routes to class I facilities
• Scenic or recreational routes, or passing through rugged terrain, usually serve
relatively short trips
• Class III: Serve moderately developed areas
• Often have reduced speed limits reflecting higher activity level
