Task · part of 6. Engineering projects. Do TWO

6(f). Moving People

Optional May not apply

This may not apply to you. You have not answered "Requirement 6: which two?" yet. Answer it and this step will either settle or drop off.

Find out the different ways people in your community get to work. Study traffic flow (number of vehicles and relative speed) in both heavy and light traffic periods. Discuss with your counselor what might be improved.

Notes and warnings

Note. The traffic study needs both heavy and light traffic periods, counting vehicles and judging their relative speed, so it takes watching at more than one time.
