摘要: This paper presents a new critical lane analysis as guide for designing signalized intersections to serve rush-hour traffic demands. Physical design and signalization alternatives are identified, methods evaluation provided. The procedures used convert volume data the year into equivalent turning movement volumes described, all then converted through-automobile volumes. technique is applied proposed plan. resulting sum of checked against established maximum values each level service (A, B, C, D, E) determine acceptability design. We provide quidelines, sample problem, operation performance characteristics assist engineer in determining satisfactory an intersection. /Author/
