| Summary: | a coordinated signal system. A priority strategy was first Another expected result of the experiment was that the cross-street period allowing the arterial phases to begin develop an evaluation methodology which could be used by developed for the intersection then implemented and each movement, hourly volumes, saturation flow rates, cycle earlier than normal. Both treatments performed as expected. engineers to determine how a priority strategy would operate equation. Required input data includes number of lanes for evaluated. A second objective of the experiment was to experiment used the 1985 Highway Capacity Manual delay extension, lengthened the green time on the arterial to allow length, and effective green times. To model the operation of limited data sets, the model showed encouraging results. line"). The evaluation methodology developed for the passage of the bus. The other, early start, shortened the prior to implementation. The priority strategy developed used priority strategy had on the operations of an intersection in reflect the type of treatment being used. Despite the signal in the system (i.e. the controller did not go "off strategy operated without disrupting coordination of the the chosen priority strategy, green times were adjusted to This experiment was conducted to examine the effects a two methods to benefit bus movement. One method, green |
