Free-flow speed (FFS); a fundamental parameter in the analysis of two-lane highways, is either estimated through direct field measurement or using analytical model. Regarding the latter approach, the Malaysian Highway Capacity Manual (MHCM) established a model for estimating FFS based on base-free-f...
