Volumes to Capacity (V/C) Ratio

V/C ratio is a planning-level measure of the extent towhich a roadway accommodates traffic

V/C ratios greater than 1.0 indicate high levels ofcongestion and stop-and-go travel

-- (0-0.4) Less than 40% of capacity utilized

-- (0.4-0.7) 40% to 70% of capacity utilized

-- (0.7-1) 70% to 100% of capacity utilized

-- (1-1.4) 140% of capacity utilized

-- (> 1.4) Demand is more than 140% of capacity
