ASSIGNMENT (5%)

A two-lane urban arterial (Class IV) with three intersections at various spacings as shown in
the Worksheet experiences high right-turn volume, served by a permitted phase and an
exclusive turn lane. Given the following information,

Field measured FFS = 50 km/h


Cycle length = 9Z sec
Lane group capacity = 1XYZ veh/hr
Initial queue at Intersection 2 = 1Y vehicles
Arrival Type = 3 (for all segments)
Signal control type = Non-actuated signals
Analysis period = 15 minutes
g/C and v/c ratios = refer to the Worksheet

1. Using the worksheet, determine the level of service for:


(a) segments 1, 2 and 3.
(b) the entire facility.

2. Provide calculation for segment 2 only.

For cycle length: Z shall be the last digit of your Matric Number.
For lane group capacity: XYZ shall be the last three digits of your Matric Number.
For initial queue at Intersection 2: Y shall be the second-last digit of your Matric
Number.

Example:

If your Matric Number is AF190285 then the cycle length to use is 95 sec, the lane
group capacity to use is 1285 veh/hr, and the initial queue at Intersection 2 to use is
18.

Submit a hand-written solution for this assignment to me via Author UTHM (scan and
convert to PDF format). The due date for submission is 30 June 2024.

Initial queue, Qb (veh)

Urban street class, SC

Free flow speed, FFS (km/h)

Running time, TR (s)


DELAY COMPUTATION
Uniform delay, d1 (s)

Signal control adjustment factor, k

Upstream filtering/metering adjustment factor, I

Incremental delay, d2 (s)

Initial queue delay, d3 (s)

Progression adjustment factor, PF


Control delay, d (s)
d = d1*PF + d2 + d3
SEGMENT LOS DETERMINATION
Segment travel time, ST (s)
ST = TR + d + other delay
Segment travel speed, SA (s)
SA = (3600*L)/ST
Segment LOS
URBAN STREET LOS DETERMINATION
Total travel time, ST = s

Total length, L = km

Total travel speed, SA = (3600*L)/ST = km/h

Total urban street LOS =
