Introduction to principles of traffic engineering. Traffic operation concepts. Travel modes and modal characteristics. Traffic stream characteristics and queuing theory. Capacity and level of service analysis of roads and intersections. Includes: Experiential Learning Activity Prerequisite(s): Fourth year status in engineering; and (CIVE 4209 or CIVE 3305). Also offered at the graduate level, with different requirements, as CIVE 5305, for which additional credit is precluded. Lectures three hours a week, problem analysis three hours alternate weeks.
