contents An extended multi-class Aw-Rascle (AR) model with pressure term described as a function of area occupancy defined in form of proportional densities is presented. Two vehicle classes that is; cars and motorcycles are considered based on an assumption that proportions of these form total traffic density. Qualitative properties of the proposed equilibrium velocity is established. Conditions under which the proposed model is stable are determine by linear stability analysis. To compute numerical flux, the model is discretized by the original Roe decomposition scheme, where Roe matrix, averaged data variables and wave strengths are explicitly derived. The Roe matrix is shown to be hyperbolic, consistent and conservative. From the numerical results, the effect of motorcycles proportion on the flow of vehicle classes is determined. Results obtained remain within limits therefore, the proposed model is realistic.
