The increasing of population and development of technology give a big impact directly to a place. The roads that link the towns allow people to move from one place to another place. A proper research should be carried out to ensure that the roads able to support the capacity of vehicles during peak hours. The purpose of this project is to determine the Level of Service (LOS) on two-lane roads in Kuching City. Those roads are important and were built during early of Kuching City development. This project focused on Tabuan Road, Stutong Road, Matang Baru Road,Sultan Tengah Road and Old 7th Mile Road, and they link the sub-urbans like Tabuan, BDC, Satok, Matang Jaya, Samariang, Santubong and Batu 7. According to the methodologies stated in Highway Capacity Manual 2000 (HCM 2000), some important data should be determined first before further analysis is carried out, and those data are traffic volume, shoulder width, lane width, design speed and access-point per mile.This project also shows how those data affect the level of service.
