STUDYOBJECTIVE
Themainobjectiveofthisstudyistoexaminetheimpactoftheproposeddevelopmenton
the road network within the vicinity of the development and to determine if the roadway

THESTUDYAREA
ThestudyareaislocatedwithintheresidentialareaofTamanMelawatiandisborderedby
Jalan Taman Melawati. The area is accessible from the Middle Ring Road (MRRII) via Jalan

EXISTINGTRAFFICCONDITIONS
Assessmentoftheexistingtrafficconditionsforthesurroundingroadnetworkinthevicinity
of the development site was ascertained through visual reconnaissance surveys as well as
conducting traffic count surveys. In addition, road inventory was also carried out to
determinethecharacteristicsoftheexistingroadsandjunctionsinthestudyarea.Thesewill
providebothaquantitativeandqualitativemeasuresoftheexistingtrafficconditionsaswell
asunderstandingofthepresenttrafficpatternandcharacteristics.
4.1
RoadandJunctionInventory
Site reconnaissance was conducted to determine the access points to the proposed
development. An inventory of the existing characteristics of the roads/junctions such as
lanes,trafficcirculation,junctioncontrolandlayoutwasalsodeveloped.

The proposed development is planned to gain access via both the northern and southern

ExistingTrafficVolume
A Manual Classified Count (MCC) was carried out to determine the existing traffic flow
patternsandtheperiodofpeakhoursontheexistingroadsandjunctionsinthevicinityof
thedevelopment.
Thetrafficcountsurveywasconductedon26thJuly2011from6.30am9.30amforAMpeak
and4.30pm7.30pmforPMpeak.Thetrafficsurveywasconductedmanuallyat15minutes

AnalysisofSurveyData
Priortoanalyzingthetrafficdatacollectedfromthetrafficsurveys,allcountedvehicleswere
converted into passenger car unit (pcu) to account for the varying vehicular composition.
The factors used in converting the various classes of vehicles to passenger units were
adoptedfromtheTripGenerationManualbyMalaysiaHighwayPlanningUnit(HPU,2010)

The operational performances of the junctions were assessed using aaSIDRA. aaSIDRA is a
traffic engineering software developed by Akcelik & Associates as an aid to junction
performanceanalysis.
The performances of J1 until J6 were assessed and the results are summarized in Table 4.3
untilTable4.8.
J1isoperatingatLOSAintheAMpeakandPMpeak.IntheAMPeak,theapproachfrom
Jalan Taman Melawati (North) has the highest delay with an average queue of 9m. This is

In year 2016, the analysis of J1 shows that the overall performance of the roundabout
without the development is operating at LOS A during AM and PM peak. With the
completion of the proposed development, the overall performance of J1 is at a LOS of A
during AM peak LOS B during PM peak. This is because the traffic generated by the
proposeddevelopmentislowatJ1roundabout.

growth of 3% per annum is applied to the total traffic generated within the study area in
year 2016. This 10year traffic volume projection is summarized in Table 6.12 until Table
6.17.
Thejunctionanalysisconductedforyear2026indicatesthattheJ1willbeatLevelofservice
(LOS) C and D during the AM and PM peaks. Table 6.12 summarised the junction
performanceforJ1.

CONCLUSION
Basedonthetrafficimpactassessmentcarriedout,theproposeddevelopmentisexpected
togenerateandattract215pcuintheAMpeakand207pcuinthePMpeak.Theproposed
development is expected to gain access from the Northern Access via Jalan G2 as well as
fromtheSouthernAccessviaJalanG1.
Upon completion of the development in year 2016, adjacent junctions are expected to
operate within the available capacity with the lowest LOS of F at Junction 4 in the peak
period. Bear in mind, J4S failure is also contributed by trips generated from adjacent
development that expected to be completed before the proposed development is fully
occupiedinYear2016.
Oncealltheplanneddevelopmentsmatureinyear2016,J4isexpectedtooperateatLOSF
and A during AM & PM peak periods. To improve this junction, it is recommended to be
upgraded to a signalized controlled junction by turn on back the existing signal light for
bettermanagethetrafficflow.
It is recommended that the above junction improvement is cocoordinated with other

junctionimprovementsproposedbytheadjacentdevelopers.Thisistoensurethatamore
robust traffic management scheme is implemented and staged according to the traffic
demandofthearea.Itisalsorecommendedthatalldeveloperswithintheareacontributeto
