Sub-problem 1c - Page 2 of 4 Sub-problem 1c: Analysis of the Signal with Pedestrians and Bicycles Step 2: Results A comparison of these results is shown in the following table:
Closing two crosswalks improves the right-turn movement operations for two approaches and increases the delay for those where the pedestrians and bicycles are consolidated. These benefits come from the adjustments to the right-turn movement saturation flow rates. It appears that the benefit to the eastbound and southbound approaches outweighs delay added to the westbound and northbound approaches. This was expected (and by design), since the major right-turn traffic is eastbound and southbound. |
