A six-lane multilane highway (three lanes in each direction) has a peak-hour factor of 0.90, 11-ft lanes with a 4-ft right-side
shoulder, and a two-way left-turn lane in the median. The directional peak-hour traffic flow is 4000 vehicles with 14% SUTs and 6% TTs. What will the level of service of this highway be on a 4% upgrade that is 1.5 miles long if the speed limit is 55 mi/h and there are 15 access points per mile
