Please calculate the level of service and delay for the westbound left lane group, the westbound approach, and the whole intersection. I provided LOS chart for reference.
Four-phases signal with a cycle time of 80 sec, Inter Green = 4 sec/phase, lost
time / phase = 2 sec. Saturation flow on all approaches are similar, but the
maximum traffic flows on two of the phases are triple the maximum traffic
flows on the remaining two approaches, what will be actual green time on each
phase ?
10. For the intersection shown below draw a 3-phase traffic signal operation.
