Capacity and Level of Service Overview by Mikealla David is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Capacity is defined as the maximum hourly rate of vehicles that can traverse a road under prevailing conditions. Level of service analyzes traffic flow quality on a qualitative scale from A to F. Level of service A represents free flow while level F is forced flow with congestion. Key metrics used to determine level of service include speed, density, travel time, and delay. The Highway Capacity Manual provides guidelines for distinguishing between levels of service based on these metrics.
