Given traffic flows for each lane group at a T junction shown in Figure below.

The
saturation traffic flows are as follow:
Through traffic is 1800 vphgpl
Left turn traffic is 1600 vphgpl
Right turn traffic is 1600 vphgpl
Assume that the length of yellow interval is 3 seconds and lost time is 4 seconds;
the minimum green for each phase is 10 seconds and the cycle given as a multiple
of 5 second.
Three phases are proposed as shown
Determine cycle length and green length for each phase
If the posted speed is 40 km/h is the yellow time is enough? Minor street is sloping
towards the intersection with grade of 4% while the major street is level. Assume
pedestrian speed is 1.2 m/sec

Question 4: A crest vertical curve on a 2-way, 2-lane road is designed for 60 mph. The
grades are 1.6% and 1.4%. If the tangents intersect at 20 + 00.0 and at an elevation of
500 feet meters above sea level, determine the stopping sight distance, the length of the
curve, and the stations and elevations for the Beginning and End of the Vertical Curve.
Assume perception reaction time is 2.5 seconds, f=0.30.
