WIM #40 – US 52, MP 126.8 SOUTH SAINT PAUL FEBRUARY 2010 MONTHLY REPORT

Page 2: WIM #40 – US 52, MP 126.8 SOUTH SAINT PAUL FEBRUARY … · 98,000 pounds, 12 were Class 9’s and 5 were Class 10’s. In the SB direction there were 16 vehicles over 98,000 pounds,

In order to understand the vehicle classes and groupings the Mn/DOT “Vehicle Classification Scheme” and the “Vehicle Class Groupings for Forecasting” are shown on the WIM Reports home page at http://www.dot.state.mn.us/traffic/data/html/wim_reports.html VOLUME For WIM #40 on US 52 at mile post 126.8 in South St. Paul, there were 1,470,016 vehicles that passed the site for the month of February. The Average Daily Traffic (ADT) and Heavy Commercial Average Daily Traffic (HCADT) for February 2010 was 52,501 and 3,327, 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) both peaked on Fridays and were only slightly lower on Thursdays and Wednesdays and were lowest on Sundays. Figure 2 shows the total vehicles, passenger vehicles (Class 1, 2, and 3), and heavy commercial vehicles (Class 4 to 13) versus hour of day. For February the total vehicles and passenger vehicles had a smaller peak between 5 am and 6 am and a larger peak between noon and 4 pm. The heavy commercial vehicles peak starting at 6 am and extended to 1 pm. The heavy commercial vehicles were reviewed for directional volume differences and it appears that there were no differences. The heavy commercial volume is within 0.5% when comparing the directional split. VEHICLE CLASSIFICATION The traffic volume consisted of 1,376,869 passenger vehicles (93.7%) and 93,147 heavy commercial vehicles (6.3%). Table 1 summarizes vehicle class volumes and percentages; and overweight vehicles and the percentages as compared to total overweight vehicles. OVERWEIGHT VEHICLES In the area of WIM #40 the Winter Load Increases (WLI) went into effect on December 18, 2009. The WLI allows a 10% across the board increase in axle and gross vehicle weights (GVW) without a permit on US and state routes. A permit is required to operate on the interstate at the WLI levels. The WLI means that the maximum allowable weight for a single axle is 22,000 pounds; tandem axles, spaced 8’ or less, can be up to 37,400 pounds; tridem axles, spaced 9’ or less, can be up to 47,300 pounds; quad axles, spaced 13’ or less, can be up to 56,100 pounds; and the maximum GVW is 88,000 pounds. The tables and graphs were analyzed with these limits. The total volume and total heavy commercial volume for February 2010 was 1,470,016 and 93,147, respectively. The total number of vehicles that were overweight was 8,452 or 0.6% of the total traffic or 9.1% of the heavy commercial vehicle. 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 Thursdays for SB they peaked on Fridays and were lowest on Sundays in both directions. The average numbers of overweight vehicles were about 1.5 times higher for NB as compared to SB. 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 6 am and noon. 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 February 2010, more of the overweight vehicles were in the NB direction. 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 in both directions. The Class 10’s had more full vehicles than empty vehicles in both directions. 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). With the 10% WLI and accuracy of about 10% anything over a GVW of 96,800 pounds is overweight. These may still be permitted loads. For the most efficient use of personnel and equipment, these are the vehicles that should be weighed on static scales and reviewed for permits. We are currently working with Mn/DOT Commercial Vehicle Operations (CVO) to determine the number of permit loads that pass by each WIM on a monthly basis. In the NB direction there were 24 vehicles over 98,000 pounds, 12 were Class 9’s and 5 were Class 10’s. In the SB direction there were 16 vehicles over 98,000 pounds, 7 were Class 9’s and 6 were Class 10’s. Table 2 summarizes the Top 10 Gross Vehicle Weight for Class 9 and Class 10 vehicles for the month of February 2010. SPEED The speed limit on US 52 at the WIM site is 55 mph. For February 2010, WIM #40 recorded an average speed of 59 mph, the median speed was 60 mph, and the 85th percentile speed was 65 mph. Figure 6 shows the speed versus the normalized percentage of passenger vehicles and heavy commercial vehicles in both the NB and SB direction. Both the NB and SB heavy commercial vehicles were going slightly slower that the passenger vehicles. Figure 7 shows the speed versus the day of the week with the volumes normalized. It looks like for February 2010, Mondays were slightly slower and Wednesdays and Saturdays were slightly faster. Figure 8 shows the speed versus the hour of the day with the volumes normalized. It appears that the traffic tends to move a little faster during the early part of the day, 3 am to 4 pm. As can be seen in the figures there are slight differences in speeds based on vehicle class, day of the week, and hour of the day. BRIDGE The Lafayette Bridge No.9800 is approximately 3.9 miles north of WIM #40, and Bridge No. 19016 on the NB side and Bridge No. 19015 on the SB side are 0.7 miles south of WIM #40. For the month of February 2010, WIM #40 saw 1,470,016 vehicles with a total weight of 8,737,900 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 3 provides details on the class breakdowns versus lane for GVW.

MATERIALS For February 2010 a total of 57,940 ESALs passed over the pavement at WIM #40. Approximately 80.6% of the ESALs were in the driving lane, 45.2% NB and 35.4% 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 60.9% of the ESALs while they are only 23.6% of the total gross vehicle weight. Table 4 provides details on the class breakdowns versus lane for ESALs. Table 4 also provides the flexible ESAL factors for each vehicle class using a terminal serviceability of 2.5 and a structural number of 5. For February 2010 there were 264 Class 9 trucks and 341 Class 10 trucks over 88,000 pounds. These 605 vehicles generated 1,957 ESALs. If all of these trucks weighed just 88,000 pounds they would have generated 1,711 ESALs, 246 ESALs lower. If you take the February 2010 monthly ESALs of 57,936 and multiply it by 12 to calculate an annual ESAL number and then multiply it by 20 to get a 20-year BESAL you get 13,905,000. If you go through the same process but start with a monthly value of 57,690, i.e. subtracting out all of the overweight Class 9 and 10 vehicles, you come up with 13,846,000 20-year BESALs. If you take the 20-year BESAL with all Class 9’s and 10’s weighing 88,000 pounds or less and divide that by 57,936, the BESALs with the overweight Class 9’s and 10’s you get 239, or the overweight Class 9’s and 10’s cause the pavement to reach its 20-year design life 1 month earlier or this is decreasing the pavement design life by 0.4%. This is a quick, back of the book 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 weight of freight we will add additional legal-weight trucks so that the total weight being shipped stays the same. CALIBRATION This is the first attempt to document Mn/DOT’s current WIM calibration process. This will change. The current plan is to try to calibrate the systems twice a year, once with the frost in the ground and once when the frost is out of the ground. WIM #40 was calibrated during initial construction this fall, so this was just a quick check after the test truck had already calibrated WIM #36 in Lake Elmo. WIM #40 was checked on February 10, 2010. The test truck is a Class 9 that weighed 79,700 pounds with an air suspension system on the two drive axles and leaf springs on the three other axles. The static weight of the test truck along with the individual weights of each axle was provided to WIM personnel. The current goal of the calibration is to first have the GVW correspond with the static weight to plus or minus 5% and then secondly to have each individual axle correspond with the static weight to plus or minus 9%. The test truck just performed two passes on each lane to confirm that the system was working within tolerances. The GVW for Lane 1 varied from 3.76% to 4.02% with an average of 3.89%. For Lane 1 the individual axles varied from -2.46% to 10.06% with an average of 3.76%. The GVW for Lane 2 varied from 0.13% to 1.25% with an average of 0.69%. For Lane 2 the individual axles varied from -5.06% to 5.66% with an average of 0.98%. The GVW for Lane 3 varied from 2.76% to 3.14% with an average of 2.95%. For Lane 3 the individual axles

varied from -6.74% to 11.95% with an average of 3.17%. The GVW for Lane 4 varied from -3.89% to 2.38% with an average of -0.75%. For Lane 4 the individual axles varied from -10.06% to 6.51% with an average of -0.63%. The GVW is within tolerance for all four lanes. The average of all axles’ weights for each lane is within tolerance for all four lanes but several of the individual passes were out of tolerance for Lanes 1, 3, and 4. It was felt that adjusting for individual axles would possibly throw off the GVW so no further adjustments were performed at this time. The calibration results are summarized in Table 6. As part of the on-going monitoring to assure the performance between calibrations, front axle weights of Class 2’s, 3’s, and 9’s will be monitored on a monthly basis. Review of current literature and data will be used to develop acceptable ranges for these three Classes. Table 5 summarizes the front axle weight of the Class 2’s, 3’s, and 9’s by lane. 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. SUMMARY For February 2010 the average volumes peaked on Fridays in both directions and were only slightly lower on Wednesdays and Thursdays and were lowest on Sundays. The overweight vehicles peaked on Thursdays in the NB direction and on Friday in the SB direction and were lowest on the weekends. The average numbers of overweight vehicles were approximately 1.5 times higher for NB than SB. The overweight vehicles peaked from 7 am to 2 pm. For February 2010, for the Class 9’s, 13.2% of them were overweight and for the Class 10’s, 47.9% of them were overweight. The speed of the traffic varies slightly based on vehicle class, day of the week, and hour of the day. The GVW was a little higher in the NB direction 4,436,000 kips versus 4,302,000 kips SB. This agrees with the ESALs. The NB ESALs were higher 32,650 versus 25,290 SB. For February 2010, the overweight Class 9’s and 10’s are shortening the 20-year BESAL design life by 1 month or by 0.4%.
