3.2. Congestion review (v /c) <br />Volume -to- Capacity ratio (V /C) is a good indicator of congestion during daily or specific peak - <br />time periods. To examine the congestion levels among the base analysis year (FY2015, current <br />demand and supply), target analysis year with no -build (FY2035 demand and current supply), <br />and target analysis year with the six project cases (FY2035 demand and, new supply), multiple <br />models were analyzed. The results on daily, AM & PM peak periods are shown in the figures <br />below: the Green, Orange, Red, and Purple colors indicate the forecasted congestion levels in <br />free flow, moderate, heavy, and stop & go conditions. <br />3.2.1.
