A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Traffic flow fundamentals

Traffic flow fundamentals cover the basic concepts of how vehicles move through a transportation network, including flow, density, and speed, and the relationships among them expressed by the fundamental diagram. Mastering these ideas is essential for analysing congestion, designing capacity, and interpreting performance measures that appear in the NUC, CCMAS, NBTE and NCCE exams.
