The saturation flow for an intersection approach is 3600 veh/h. At the beginning of cycle no vehicles are queued. The signal is timed so that what the queue is 13 vehicles the effective green begins. If the queue dissipates 8 seconds before the end of the cycle and the cycle length is 60 seconds. What is the arrival rate assuming D/D/1 queuing?
Please estimate the minimum cycle length and the green intervals for the following signalized intersection (Figure 7). Please note that the minimum cycle length will be influenced by the design of the phasing diagram. The arrival flow, in pcu/h, for each direction, is illustrated in Figure 7. Please assume any missing values. Lost time following each phase = 2 sec, Amber = 3 sec, Red all = 1 sec, saturation flow 1400 pcu/h. 196, 367, 170 JIL! 400, 140, 215 716 120, 417, 232 400, 433, 184 Figure 7.

Traffic demand shown in the figure below uniformly arrives at an intersection. Determine the optimal cycle length and split for the 2- phase signal control. The saturation flow rate of each approach is 2000 [veh/hr of effec-tive green] during the first 40 [sec] after the start of green, but it drops to 1900 [veh/hr of effective green] thereafter. Also, the lost time is assumed to be 5 [sec/phase]. 1000[veh/h] 300[veh/h] 500[veh/h] 1300[veh/h]
An observer notes that an approach to a pretimed signal, the time it will take the queue to clear after the start of the effective green (assuming that approach capacity exceeds arrivals and D/D/1 queuing applies) is 60 s. If the saturation flow rate is 1440 veh/h and the effective red time is 40 seconds, what is the maximum number of vehicles in a queue in a given cycle? Round off the final answer to whole number (no units).

A. Adjust the volumes. B. Find the saturation flow rate. C. Find the degree of saturation. D. Find the theoretical delay for each movement. E. Find the theoretical delay and LOS for the EB and NB approaches.

An approach to a pretimed signal has 30 seconds of effective red, and D/D/1 queuing holds. The total delay at the approach is 83.33 veh-s/cycle and the saturation flow rate is 1000 veh/h. If the capacity of the approach equals the number of arrivals per cycle, determine the approach flow rate and cycle length.
Q2/ A 3-phase traffic signal (cycle time 114 sec) is used at intersection of approach x, y, and z with equal effective green time at all approaches. Assuming that width of approach= 12 m, % left turning =30. show the following for one of the approaches: a- A sketch showing the sequence of all controller times appearing during one cycle indicating their values. b- Number of vehicles that could be discharge per cycle.
An approach to a pre-timed signal has 40 sec of effective green in a 75-second cycle.The approach volume is 700 veh/h and the saturation flow rate is 1600 veh/h.Calculate the time to queue clearance after the start of the effective green, themaximum number of vehicles in the queue, the total vehicle delay per cycle andthe average delay per vehicle assuming D/D/1 queuing.
An approach at a signalized intersection with a 60-second cycle gets 30 seconds of displayed green time. Yellow time is 4 seconds and all-red is 2 seconds (lost time is to be determined from standard assumptions). At the beginning of an effective red there are 4 vehicles in the queue and the saturation flow is 876 veh/h. The arrival rate is given by v(t) = 0.20 - 0.002t [with v(t) in veh/s and t in seconds after the beginning of the effective red]. What is the average vehicle delay for this approach in seconds at the end of the cycle (until the next effective red) that started with the 4 vehicles queued at the beginning of the effective red? (Assume D/D/1 queueing. Please provide you answer in decimal form without units)
