Analyze the intersection shown in Figure 1 using the HCM methodology. Clearly provide your results for Parts a and b in a table. (Suggestion: Using Excel would be helpful in keeping track of the calculations)
a.(12 pts) Determine the existing \(\mathrm{v}/\mathrm{c}\) ratio, delay, and LOS for each lane group in the intersection. (Lane groups: EBT, EBR, WBT, WBL, NBL, NBR)
b.(8 pts) Determine the delay and LOS for:i) each approach and ii) the intersectiof.as a. whols.
c.(5 pts) Provide your recommendations for improvements to the signal timing, if your results indicate that improvements are needed.
The following additional information is available for the intersection:
- PHF: 0.92.
- Arrival Types: WB: 5; EB: 2; NB: 3.
-\%HV: \(12\%\) in all movements.
- No need to consider pedestrians as overpasses are provided.
