Lane groups are used during signal design to allocate green time among traffic movements at an intersection. What lane group(s) should be defined for the north-bound approach? Intersection layout is shown in the figure below. All approaches have an exclusive left-turning lane. The right lane is shared between through and right turns. a. There should be two lane groups. The left turn lane is its own lane group (Lane Group #1). The rest lanes belong to Lane Group #2. b. There should be two lane groups. The right-side lane is its own lane group because it's shared (Lane Group #1). The rest lanes belong to Lane Group #2. c. There should be just one lane group, which contains all the lanes from that approach. d. Any of the above.
The traffic volume at the north-south approach of an arterial road intersection is 720 veh/h and 25% of the traffic take right turns. A right-turn-only lane at the signalised intersection of this approach can store a maximum of six vehicles. The cycle time of the traffic light is 90 seconds, the green time allocated for right turns can accommodate a maximum of six vehicles. Determine - the volume (veh/hr) of vehicles taking right turns - the average number of vehicles taking right turns in 90 seconds - the probability of no vehicles staying on the right-turn-only lane during an allocated green time - the probability that there will be a backup of vehicles waiting to turn right thus blocking the lane; and - show the situation of the north-south approach using an appropriate sketch

A T-intersection is the meeting point of a two-lane minor road (one lane in each direction) with a two-lane undivided highway (one lane in each direction). The vehicles approaching from the minor road must stop, but the vehicles along the highway do not need to stop. Draw all the traffic movements and count the number of conflict points (i.e., major and minor).

A signalized intersection has two lane groups. The two WBT lanes (lane group #1) have a total volume of 863 pc/h and an average control delay of 24.5 seconds. The one WBL lane (lane group #2) has a volume of 203 pc/h and an average control delay of 36.5 seconds. What is the approach's LOS? Group of answer choices LOS A LOS D LOS C LOS B

Qu. A two-lane minor road with a +5% approach grade intersects with a four-lane undivided road. Determine the minimum intersection sight distance on the major road required for a stopped single-unit truck to depart from the minor road (in the upgrade direction) and turn right onto the major road. The design speed is 30 km/h on the minor road and 50 km/h on the major road.
For the same intersection in Problem 2, left-turning vehicles in the north-bound approach must seek appropriate gaps to cross the through movement. They need 5.5 seconds to cross one through lane, plus 0.5 second for every additional lane, to cross the opposite traffic. As you recall from the class, the intersection sight distance (ISD) is calculated by: ISD = 1.47 x S85 × tgap Do left-turning vehicles have sufficient sight distance to safely cross? You may use the design speed (45 mph) as a proxy for S85. To calculate tgap, there are a total of two lanes in the opposite traffic, as shown in the picture in Problem 2. Safely cross drivers see at least ISD ahead.
A right-turn-only lane at the west-east approach to a signalized intersection can store a maximum of five vehicles. The traffic volume at the approach is 900 veh/h and 20% of the traffic take right turns. The cycle time of the traffic light is 60 s, the green time allocated for right turns can accommodate a maximum of five vehicles. Determine the probability that there will be a backup of vehicles waiting to turn right thus blocking the lane.
A highway section has a grade of -2%, a school zone is operated for 30 minutes before and after school time, the posted speed during the school zone will be 25 km/hr. A new sign will be installed to aware drivers about the school zone with a flashing light. Find the proper distance from the school zone that the sign should be located in a meter. Knowing that the traffic stream has a posted speed of 80 km/hr and the driver can recognize 1 in. of sign letter from 20 ft. The engineer summary for a spot speed study shows that there is a lot of speed violation, that some drivers drive 10% higher than the posted speed. The sign has a height of 5 in.
