WIM #42 US 61, MP 119.6 COTTAGE GROVE, MINNESOTA OCTOBER 2012
MONTHLY REPORT
1 | P a g e
In order to understand the vehicle classes and groupings the Mn/DOT “Vehicle Classification Scheme” and the “Vehicle Classification Groupings for Forecasting” are shown on the TDA Data Products page at http://www.dot.state.mn.us/traffic/data/data-products.html#weight The WIM Monthly Reports are show at http://www.dot.state.mn.us/traffic/data/reports-monthly-wim.html For the month of October 2012, the system appeared to be operating normally. The data in this report uses the data that was collected for the month, no other extrapolation was performed. VOLUME For WIM #42 on US 61 at mile post 119.6 in Denmark Township near the City of Cottage Grove, there were 925,581 vehicles that passed the site for the month of October. The Average Daily Traffic (ADT) and Heavy Commercial Average Daily Traffic (HCADT) for October 2012 were 29,857 and 1,456, respectively. Of the heavy commercial vehicles, the top two in volume were the Class 9’s and 5’s. Figure 1 shows the average number of vehicles, broken down by direction, versus day of the week. The average numbers of vehicles for northbound (NB) and southbound (SB) peaked on Fridays and was lowest on Sundays. Figure 2 shows the passenger vehicles (Class 1, 2, and 3), and heavy commercial vehicles (Class 4 to 13) by direction versus hour of day. For October the NB passenger vehicles had a small peak between 7 am and 9 am and between 3 pm and 7 pm and the SB passenger vehicles had a larger peak between 3 pm and 8 pm. The passenger vehicles were reviewed for directional volume differences and it appears that there were slightly more going in the NB direction. For October the NB heavy commercial had a peak between 7 am and 5 pm and the SB heavy commercial vehicles had a peak between 8 am and 5 pm. It appears that more heavy commercial vehicles were going NB. VEHICLE CLASSIFICATION The traffic volume consisted of 880,453 passenger vehicles (95.1%) and 45,128 heavy commercial vehicles (4.9%). Table 1 summarizes vehicle class volumes and percentages; and overweight vehicles and the percentages as compared to total overweight vehicles. OVERWEIGHT VEHICLES The normal maximum allowable weight for a single axle is 20,000 pounds; tandem axles, spaced 8’ or less, can be up to 34,000 pounds; tridem axles, spaced 9’ or less, can be up to 43,000 pounds; quad axles, spaced 13’ or less, can be up to 51,000 pounds; and the maximum GVW is 80,000 pounds. The total volume and total heavy commercial volume for October 2012 was 925,581 and 45,128, respectively. The total number of overweight violations was 5,310 or 0.6% of the total traffic or 11.8% of the heavy commercial vehicles. Figure 1 shows the average number of overweight vehicles, broken down by direction, versus day of the week. The average numbers of overweight vehicles for NB peaked on Mondays and
2 | P a g e
SB peaked on Wednesdays and for both directions they were lowest on the weekends. The top two overweight violators by class were the Class 9’s and the Class 10’s. Overweight vehicles by class versus hour of the day are shown in Figure 3. The Class 9 overweight vehicles peaked between 7 am and 7 pm. The overweight vehicles were also reviewed to determine if there is a NB and SB difference. Figure 4 shows the total, NB, and SB overweight vehicles versus hour of the day. Figure 4 shows that for October 2012, over 67% of the overweight vehicles were going NB. Chart 1 shows the number of vehicles during the last three months that crossed the WIM weighing more than 88,000 pounds. For August, there were still 120 vehicles that crossed the WIM that weighed more than 100,000 pounds. That number decreased to 56 for September and 35 for October. Figure 5 shows the gross vehicle weight for Class 9’s and 10’s in both the NB and SB direction. From Figure 5 it is apparent that the Class 9’s had more empty than full vehicles in both directions. The Class 10’s had more full vehicles than empty vehicles going NB and more empty than full vehicles going SB. For weight enforcement the WIMs are a screening tool. Currently, piezo-quartz WIM systems are considered to be accurate within 5% to 10% on Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW). During normal load limits and with an accuracy of about 10% anything over a GVW of 88,000 pounds is overweight. For the most efficient use of personnel and equipment, these are the vehicles that should be weighed on static scales and reviewed for permits. In the NB direction during the normal load limits there were 740 vehicles over 88,000 pounds, 584 were Class 9’s and 98 were Class 10’s. In the SB direction during the normal load limits there were 40 vehicles over 88,000 pounds, 17 were Class 9’s and 14 were Class 10’s. Table 2 summarizes the Top 10 Gross Vehicle Weight for Class 9 and Class 10 vehicles for the month of October 2012. SPEED The speed limit on US 61 NB at the WIM site is 50 mph. The speed limit on US 61 SB at the WIM site is 60 mph. For October 2012 for all four lanes, WIM #42 recorded an average speed of 61 mph, the median speed was 61 mph, and the 85th percentile speed was 66 mph. Table 3 summarizes the vehicle data for the Top 20 speeders that crossed WIM #42 in the month of October. The speed of the Top 20 ranged from 91 mph up to 111 mph. It is interesting to note that it looks like 2 in the Top 20 may have been racing. Two vehicles went over the sensors SB in Lanes 3 and 4 on Saturday, October 6th at 11:21:32 am going 99 and 102 mph, respectively. Figure 6 shows the average speed of passenger vehicles and heavy commercial vehicles in both the NB and SB direction by lane. The slowest vehicles were the heavy commercial vehicles in the driving lanes. The fastest vehicles were the passenger vehicles in the passing lanes. Depending on the hour of the day there is between a 8 and 11 mph difference between the average slowest vehicles and the average fastest vehicles going in the same direction. Figure 7 shows the average speed versus the day of the month. For October 2012 the average speeds generally varied between 57 mph and 65 mph. The slowest speed generally occurred between midnight and 6 am and the fastest speed occurred around 6 pm. Figure 8 shows
3 | P a g e
the average speed by lane. The NB passing lane is consistently about 1 to 2 mph faster than the other lanes. BRIDGE The Hastings Bridge No. 5895 is approximately 1.9 miles south of WIM #42, and Bridge No. 82J16 is 1.0 miles north of WIM #42. For the month of October 2012, WIM #42 saw 925,581 vehicles with a total weight of 5,261,000 kips (1 kip = 1,000 pounds). Figure 9 summarizes the total GVW by lane and class and Figure 10 summarizes the percentages each class contributes to the total GVW. Table 4 provides details on the class breakdowns versus lane for GVW. MATERIALS For October 2012 a total of 28,893 ESALs passed over the pavement at WIM #42. Approximately 84.1% of the ESALs were in the driving lane, 55.4% NB and 28.7% SB. Figure 11 graphically depicts the total ESALs by class and lane. Figure 12 summarizes the percentages that each vehicle class contributes to the total ESALs. It is interesting to note that the Class 9’s provide 63.1% of the ESALs while they are only 18.2% of the total gross vehicle weight. Table 5 provides details on the class breakdowns versus lane for ESALs. Table 5 also provides the flexible ESAL factors for each vehicle class using a terminal serviceability of 2.5 and a structural number of 5. Reviewing the ESALs in the 4 lanes for October 2012, the largest number of ESALs is in Lane 1, the NB driving lane. Therefore, the design lane would be the NB driving lane and the growth factor for this section of US 61 in Washington County is 1.2%. In October, for the NB driving lane, there were 1,768 Class 9 trucks and 291 Class 10 trucks over 80,000 pounds. These 2,059 vehicles generated 6,953 ESALs. If all of these trucks weighed just 80,000 pounds they would have generated 5,119 ESALs, 1,835 ESALs lower. If you take the October NB driving lane ESALs of 15,993 and multiply it by 12 to get an annual ESAL number, apply a growth factor of 1.2% for 20 years (1.24) and then multiply it by 20 to get a 20-year BESAL you get 4,759,000. If you go through the same process but start with a monthly value of 14,158, i.e. subtracting out all of the overweight Class 9 and 10 vehicles, you come up with 4,213,000 20-year BESALs. If you take the difference between the 20-year BESAL and divide that by 15,993, the BESALs with the overweight Class 9’s and 10’s you get 34.14, or the overweight Class 9’s and 10’s cause the pavement to reach its 20-year design life over 34 months early. This is a quick, back of the napkin calculation, this only looks at Class 9’s and 10’s, not the other 8 heavy commercial classes. As part of a technical implementation research project we are looking at developing a report function that will perform this calculation for all heavy commercial classes. Because the heavy commercial haulers are looking to move that tonnage of freight we will add additional legal-weight trucks so that the total tonnage being shipped stays the same.

FREIGHT For WIM #42 for October 2012, it was calculated that approximately 326,000 tons of freight crossed the sensors. More freight was shipped NB (177,000 tons) versus SB (149,000 tons). Table 6 summarizes number of vehicles by class and the number of empty vehicles. Table 6 and Figure 13 summarize the freight shipment by class, direction, and tonnage. CALIBRATION As part of the on-going monitoring to assure the performance between calibrations, gross vehicle weights and front axle weights of Class 2’s, 3’s, and 9’s are being monitored on a monthly basis. Table 7 summarizes the gross vehicle weight of the Class 2’s and 3’s. Currently, all Class 2’s and 3’s are included in this data. In the future, the goal would be to only monitor the Class 2’s and 3’s that are not pulling trailers. Table 8 summarizes the front axle weight of the Class 2’s, 3’s, and 9’s by lane. The current goal of the calibration is to first have the GVW for each class and each lane stay within a range of ±5% and then secondly to have each individual axle stay within a range of ±9%. As you can see in Table 7, the GVW was within the range for both classes in all four lanes. In Table 8 the front axle weight was within the range for all three Classes in all four lanes. Past WIM research indicates that an unloaded Class 9 should weigh 28 to 32 kips. Data from the MnROAD site indicates that this unloaded range may have moved a little higher. The range for loaded Class 9’s is generally in the 70 to 80 kip range but varies more by site and season. Figures 14 to 17 shows histograms of the monthly GVW of Class 9’s for the last 12 months for Lanes 1 to 4. Figure 18 is a graph of the unloaded and loaded peaks by lane versus date. There are enough Class 9’s in Lanes 1 and 4 that a weekly histogram can be developed, while for Lane 2 about 4 weeks of data is needed and for Lane 3 about 2 weeks of data is needed to develop a clear histogram. These figures indicate that WIM 32 is in the calibration range. We will coordinate with MnROAD personnel to schedule the test truck to go to the site and perform a complete calibration of all four lanes. SUMMARY For October 2012, the average volume NB and SB peaked on Fridays and for both directions the volume was lowest on Sundays. The overweight vehicles for NB peaked on Mondays and for SB they peaked on Wednesdays and were lowest on the weekends for both directions. Over 67% of overweight vehicles were going NB. The overweight vehicles peaked from 7 am to 5 pm. For October 2012, for the Class 9’s, 17.5% of them were overweight and for the Class 10’s, 27.3% of them were overweight. The speed of the traffic varies slightly based on vehicle class, lane, and hour of the day. The GVW was higher in the NB direction 2,717,000 kips versus 2,544,000 kips SB. This agrees with the ESALs and the freight data. The NB ESALs were higher 16,768 versus 12,124 SB. The tonnage of freight was higher in the NB direction 177,000 versus 149,000 SB. For October 2012, the overweight Class 9’s and 10’s were shortening the 20-year BESAL design life by over 34 months. Table 9 provides a monthly summary of some of the key data for the site during the last three months.
