ABSTRACT
2
INTROCUCTION
Spot speed study is the data
collectionof speed of vehicle
passing through that particular
location
Speed by definition is the
distance travelled in unit time
The typical unit of speed is
kilometer per hour (kmph) or
miles per hour (mph)
Speed plays a vital role in
evaluating the safety of road
network.
3
OBJECTIVES
Planning traffic control and regulations
Geometric designs
Accidental studies
Traffic capacity
Speed trends
Safety measures
Also help to determine weather the roadway is in need of
new enforcement, realignment or reconstruction

LITERATURE REVIEWS
1.CURRIN :
He conducted on major highways in makurdi town
The field work exercised between 8A.M to 5P.M. daily
Study sites are located at midblock of the highway, other
obstacles to free flow of vehicular traffic
Spot speeds were measured for vehicles travelling in both
the directions
Measurement technique : Manual Measurement
techniqueTraffic count method

METHODOLOGY
The methods used for the conducting spot speed studies can
generally
be divided into two main categories
→ Manual - (Stop watch method)
→ Automatic
Stop watch method:
Stop watch method is defined as manually measuring the
time it takes a vehicle to travel between two defined
points on the roadway a known distance
Distance between two points is generally depending upon
the average speed of traffic stream
