question (5 minutes):

1. NAME:
2. Write the first thing that comes to your
mind when you hear/see the word
Traffic Engineering
SYNOPSIS
This is one of the compulsory subjects which will exposed
students to the fundamental theory of traffic engineering. The
content of traffic engineering subject provides students with
the fundamental theory of traffic flow and management.

Major topics include traffic studies, drivers’ behavior and


interactions, statistics, the fundamental theory of speed–flow–
density relationships and applications in road performance
analysis, the design of traffic signalized system, and highway
geometric design.
LEARNING OUTCOMES

By the end of the course, student should be


able to:
1. demonstrate and describe knowledge in the
fundamental theories of traffic flow.
2. design, analyze, synthesize and explain the collections of
data for traffic design and analysis purposes
3. design, evaluate, analyze, synthesize and explain traffic
control systems at intersections and highway geometry
layouts for safe and efficient management of traffic
movements
