On a four legs rotary intersection, the width of both crossed urban streets is equal to 10.0m in each direction. Assume the central island circumference equals 157m, and a circulating width equals 12.0m.

The average queue length at the intersection of the two roads with a stop sign is 4 vehicles. If the arrival rate of vehicles at the stop sign is 300 veh/hr, determine the service rate of the road in veh/hr. Assume both arrival and departure rates are exponentially distributed.
7.24 Vehicles arrive at an approach to a pretimed signalized intersection. The arrival rate over the cycle is given by the function v(t) = 0.22 + 0.012t [v(t) is in veh/s and t is in seconds]. There are no vehicles in the queue when the cycle (effective red) begins. The cycle length is 60 seconds and the saturation flow rate is 3600 veh/h. Determine the effective green and red times that will allow the queue to clear exactly at the end of the cycle (the end of the effective green), and determine the total vehicle delay for this approach over the cycle (assuming D/D/1 queuing).
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?

. An automobile traveling at a rate of 30 ft/sec is approaching an intersection. When the automobile is 120 ft from the intersection, a truck traveling at the rate of 40 fi/sec crosses the intersection, The automobile and the truck are on roads that are at right angles to each other. How fast are the automobile and the truck separating 2 sec after the truck leaves the intersection?
A segment of rural freeway is being designed for a FFS of 70 mph through rolling terrain. The directional (i.e. one-way) design volume is 3,000 vehicles per hour. If 10% of the design volume is expected to be heavy vehicles (i.e. trucks and buses), what is the heavy vehicle adjustment used to determine the flow rate?

Subject: transportation engineering Read the question carefully and give me right solution according to the question. A signal has four phases, where the critical lane group flow ratios are 0.115, 0.204, 0.099, and 0.248. If the lost time per phase is 6 seconds and the critical intersection v/c ratio is 0.88, calculate the minimum cycle length and the phase effective green times such that the lane group v/c ratios are equal.
