2. An intersection has a 2-timing stage signal with the movements allowed in each timing stage, analysis and saturation flow rates shown below. Consider that the lost time per timing stage is 3 seconds and a critical v/c ratio of 0.85 is desired. Calculate minimum cycle length, and the effective green times (based on minimum cycle length).

2. An intersection has a 2-timing stage signal with the movements allowed in each timing
stage, analysis and saturation flow rates shown below. Consider that the lost time per
timing stage is 3 seconds and a critical v/c ratio of 0.85 is desired. Calculate minimum
cycle length, and the effective green times (based on minimum cycle length).
