Question: An intersection has a 3 - timing stage signal with the movements allowed in each timing stage and corresponding analysis and saturation flow rates shown

An intersection has a 3-timing stage signal with the movements allowed in each timing stage and corresponding analysis and saturation flow rates shown below. Consider that the total lost time is 12 seconds and a critical vc ratio of 0.85 was desired. The cycle length is 60 seconds. Calculate the delay and level of service for (a) the westbound left lane group, (b) the westbound approach and (c) the whole intersection.
\table[[Timing Stage,1,2,3],[Allowed movements,NB L,SB L,NB T/R,SB T/R,EB L,WB L,EB T/R,WB T/R],[Analysis flow rate (veh/h),330,365,1125,1075,110,80,250,285],[Saturation flow rate(veh/h),1700,1750,3400,3300,650,600,1750,1800],[Effective green (sec),13.9,22.1,11.3,]]
