Sub-problem 2a: Analysis of the Existing TWSC Intersection Considering the Effects of the Adjacent Intersections

Step 2. Results

The HCM procedure produces the following results for each minor stream movement:

bullet

capacity of the movement and the capacity of the lane or lanes

bullet

delay for the movement and the weighted average delay for each lane

bullet

95th-percentile queue for each lane

bulletlevel of service for each lane

These results are summarized in Exhibit 1-20, for the existing volumes.

Discussion:
If we review the results produced when we consider the effect of arrival patterns from the Sweet Avenue signal (above), we see that there is no difference from our previous analysis. Why?
