Capacity analysis for local roads in Malaysia has always been carried out using manuals from other countries. These methods include the Arahan Teknik (Jalan) 13/87, the U.S. Highway Capacity Manual (HCM 2000) and aaSIDRA. However, in 2006, the Ministry of Works Malaysia introduced Malaysia very own Malaysian Highway Capacity Manual (MHCM 2006) with hopes that a more accurate outcome will be the result from the usage of this manual. This paper discusses the comparison done to compare the results from the four manuals above with the actual situation on-site. The outcome of the study shows that from all four manuals, the MHCM 2006 gives the result closest to what was obtained on-site.
