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.
TRANSPORTATION ENGINNERING-TRAFFIC SIGNALS An approach to a predetermined signal has 25 seconds of effective green for a 60 second cycle. The approach volume is 500 vehicles/hour and the saturation flow rate is 1400 vehicles/hour. Calculate the average vehicle delay using D/D/1 queing.
A pretimed four-phase signal has critical lane group flow rates for the first three phases of 200, 187, and 210 veh/h (saturation flow rates are 1800 veh/h/ln for all phases). The lost time is known to be 4 seconds for each phase. Assuming Xi = 0.9. If the cycle length is 60 seconds, what is the estimated effective green time of the fourth phase?
The minimum cycle length for an intersection is determined to be 95 seconds. The cirtical lane group flow ratios were calculated as 0.235, 0.250, 0.170 and 0.125 for phases 1- 4 respectively. What Xc was used in the determination of this cycle length, assuming a lost time of 5 seconds per phase?
TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING-TRAFFIC SIGNALS" Recent analysis at an approach to pre-time signalized intersection indicate that the volume-to-capacity ratio (v/c) is 0.8, htat saturation flow rate (s) is 1600 vehicles/hour, and the effective green time is 50 seconds. If the average delay, assuming D/D/1 is 11.25 seconds per vehicle, determine the arrival flow rate (vehicles/hour) and the cycle length.
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.
An approach to a pretimed signal has 32 seconds of effective green, a saturation flow rate of 1800 veh/h, and a volume-to-capacity ratio less than 1. If the cycle length is 115 seconds and the overall delay formula (Eq. 7.27) estimates an average delay that is 38 seconds greater than that estimated by using just the uniform delay formula, determine the vehicle arrival rate in veh/h. (Assume the signal is isolated and d_3 = 0.
