Existing Capacity Problems on Arterial Roads At the planning level, capacity problems are identified by comparing the existing number of lanes with current traffic volumes. Table 8-5 illustrate the existing number of lanes on arterial roadways within the City. Figure 8-5 illustrates existing traffic volumes on Principal Arterial, A -Minor Arterials and other significant roadways within the City. As shown in the table, no arterial roadway located within or adjacent to the City have more than four lanes. All other arterial roadways have four or fewer lanes. TH 61 is the only roadway that transition between two lanes and three lanes (one travel lane in each direction with a dedicated left -turn lane). All City of Hugo existing volumes are below or within the planning level capacity thresholds shown in Table 8-4, however, some congestion does occur along some primary routes, such as TH 61, due to operational constraints at intersections.
