Sub-problem 4b: Two-way Stop Controlled Analysis

Step 1. Setup

Exhibit 3-28. Conventional Intersection Conflicts

The unusual geometrics, especially the physical distance separating the conflicting movements at the Krome Avenue/Okeechobee Road intersection, will require some thought about how to represent the intersection for analysis by the HCM procedures. The conventional intersection conflict points are shown in Exhibit 3-28. Because of the wide separation of conflicts at this intersection, it should occur to us that we probably shouldn’t treat this situation as a typical urban intersection.

In this sub-problem, we will carry out a conventional intersection analysis. Then we will examine the results to determine if our treatment was appropriate.

Consider:

bullet

What movements are considered in the HCM procedures?

bulletWhat is the basis for determining LOS in the unsignalized intersections methodology?

Discussion:
Take a few minutes to consider these questions. Click continue when you are ready to proceed.
