Two roads AB and CD intersect at O. The width of each approach lane is given as 3
3 m. The volume on each of the legs is as follows: right-turn volume on the leg AO is 10
400 pcu/hr, through and left-turn volume on the leg AO is 850 pcu/hr; right-turn
volume on the leg BO is 325 pcu/hr, through and left-turn volume on the leg BO is
900 pcu/hr; total volume on the leg CO is 540 pcu/hr; total volume on the leg DO is
400 pcu/hr; volumes of right-turning vehicles on legs CO and DO are 25% of the
total volumes of the respective lanes. Both the roads are 17 m wide. Assume, design
vehicle length = 5 m, design speed = 45 kmph, perception-reaction time for
responding to green to amber change in signal indication = 1 s, comfortable
deceleration = 4 m/s2, start-up lost time = 2 s, movement lost time = half of amber
time, and there is no all-red time. For the above intersection, determine all aspects of
signal timing.
