Recent computations at an approach to a pretimed-signalized intersection indicate that the volume-to-capacity ratio is 0.8, the saturation flow rate is 1600 veh/h, and the effective groen time is 50 seconds. If the uniform delay is 11.25 seconds per vehicle, determine the anival flow rate (in vehvh) and the cycle length.

4) Traffic on the eastbound approach of a signalized intersection is traveling at 35 mi/hr, with a density of 46 veh/mi/In. The duration of the red signal indication for this approach is 30 sec. If the saturation flow is 1900 veh/h/In with a density of 52 veh/mi/In, and the jam density is 125 veh/mi/In, determine the following: (i) The length of the queue at the end of the red phase (ii) The maximum queue length (iii) The time it takes for the queue to dissipate after the end of the red indication.
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)

Compute the average approach delay per cycle, given the saturation flow rate of 2400 veh/h and is allocated 24 seconds of effective green in an 80-second signal cycle. Flow at the approach is 500 veh/h. Assume the traffic flow accounts for the peak 15-min period and that there is no initial queue at the start of the analysis period.
Quest... In a three-phase signal system design for a four- leg intersection, the critical flow ratios for each phase are 0.18, 0.32, and 0.22. The total loss time in each of the phases is 2 s. As per Webster's formula, find the optimal cycle length.
In a three phase signal design for a four leg intersection, the critical flow ratios for each phase are 0.16, 0.30 and 0.20. The total loss time in each of the phases is 2s. As per Webster's formula, find the optimal cycle length ?
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.

Q2: What are the assumptions for using the equations in the queue test? Q3: A signalized intersection, of 105 sec cycle length, the east approach has an effective green time of 20 sec, and the percentage of vehicles arriving during green time is 28%. The west approach has 16 sec green time and 32% of vehicles arriving during the green time. Determine which approach is best coordinated with the upstream signal.
Recent computations at an approach to a pretimed-signalized intersection indicate that the volume-to-capacity ratio is 0.8, the saturation flow rate is 1600 veh/h, and the effective green time is 50 seconds. If the uniform delay is 11.25 seconds per vehicle, determine the arrival flow rate (in veh/h) and the cycle length.
(b) An approach to a pretimed signal has 25 seconds of effective green in a 60-second cycle. The approach volume is 500 vph and the saturation flow rate is 1400 vph. Calculate the average vehicle delay assuming D/D/1 queuing.
Question- A signalized intersection operates in two phases. The lost time is 3 seconds per phases. The maximum ratios of approach flow to saturation flow for the two phases are 0.37 and 0.40. The optimum cycle length using the Webster's method (in seconds, round off to one decimal place) is...
