Abstract
The present study focuses on the effect of roadside frictions on the selected undivided urban midblock section. The objective of
this study is to identify the significant variables that influence traffic speed in the mid-block section and using those significant
variables creating a model for predicting the traffic speed. The analysis was based on the video graphic data collection on midblock
sections of Kalimati, Gaushala, Kuleshwor and Maitidevi. The passenger car unit, traffic flow, traffic speed and the frequency of side
friction variables was determined. Correlation matrix was generated for the correlation of different independent variables. Multiple
Linear Regression (MLR) was used to predict the traffic speed at the mid-block section from the traffic flow and roadside friction
variables. The regression model has adjusted R square value of 65.6%. The predicted speed showed good correlation with the
observed speed with MAPE of 11.36%. Hence, the model proposed in this study will be useful for finding the traffic stream speed
on undivided urban mid-block section under the condition of side frictions.
