Intersection Design

An intersection is a location where two or more roads or railways meet or join. The traffic movement is controlled at the intersection that depends on its design and type. It governs the operation, efficiency, speed, capacity, and safety of the highways, airways, and railways. The movement of the pedestrian causes hazards and delays at the intersection.

Determine whether a T intersection (one leg on the minor approach) with the hourly volume data satisfy MUTCD Warrant 3 (peak-hr vehicular volume) for signalization. All approaches have one lane entering the intersection. For the warrant that is met, explain how the warrant is met (rules applied, hours in which the volume criteria were met, etc.) and refer to necessary graphs and tables. The major street speed limit is 60 km/h, and the minor street speed limit is 40 km/h.
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.
Traffic volume count has been collected on a 2- lane road section which needs upgradation due to severe traffic flow condition. Maximum service flow rate per lane is observed as 1280 veh/h at level of service 'C'. The Peak Hour Factor is reported as 0.78125. Historical traffic volume count provides Annual Average Daily Traffic as 12270 veh/day. Directional split of the traffic flow is observed to be 60: 40. Assuming that traffic stream consists of 'All Cars' and all drivers are 'Regular Commuters', the number of extra lane(s) (round off to the next higher integer) to be provided, is
