The stop-controlled junction in Question 1 has then been upgraded to a roundabout in 2024.
However, due to the high projected traffic volume, it will be converted into a signalized
intersection after 10 years. The layout of the roundabout is as shown in Figure 2. The projected
peak hour flow rate for the roundabout is as shown in Table 2 and the saturation flow is shown
in Table 3. Annual growth rate is 2.5% and assume amber time =3s, all-red interval =2s and
lost time per phase is 2s.
(a) Sketch the layout of the signalised intersection based on the direct conversion of the
roundabout to signalized intersection.
(b) Propose the signal phasing and sketch the ring diagram. Based on Arahan Teknik (Jalan)
method:
Design the signal timing for year 2034:
Calculate values of qS.
Determine the optimum cycle length, given:
Co=1.5L+51-Y
Determine the green time setting and sketch the timing distribution diagram.
(c) If the signalized intersection has reached its capacity after 5 years, propose other possible
solutions that can be implemented to improve the level-of-service and provide
justification for the proposed solution.
