The document is concerned with the effect of trucks on a highway to reduce the capacity in terms of total vehicles carried per hour. Since the extent of influence trucks have on traffic is related to the design, the report is made up of four studies: Downstream from a traffic signal, downstream from an entrance roadway, level on a tangent roadway, and on a grade.
