1 Actuated Signal Timing Design CIVL 4162/6162
2 Session Objective Explain terms related to actuated signals Explain why and where actuated signals are used Determine detector locations given traffic conditions Explain how semi-,full-actuated, volume-density signals work Explain how presence and passage detectors work
3 Demand Variation
4 Variation in arrival demand Wasted green Queue 4 forming Pretimed signals operate with constant cycle lengths, phase sequence, and interval timings Capacity with a pretimed controller is constant. When demand varies significantly from time to time, either green time is wasted or queue forms. In a coordinated system, however, all signals must operate on a single fixed cycle length to maintain offsets and progression patterns Actuated controllers are not good for such cases
5 Types of Actuated Control 5 The cycle length, phase splits, even the phase sequence may vary from cycle to cycle. Semi-actuated control Full-actuated control Detection only on minor side-street approaches; green remain on the main until a call for service on the side street is registered. When warrant 1b (interruption of main traffic) is used. All approaches have detectors; equal importance of the direction of traffic; for relatively isolated intersections; Volume-density control Basically functions like full-actuated control; good for high-speed approaches (>= 45 mph); Has extra features to adjust initial timing and reduce the gap extension during green extension time
6 Mechanisms of Actuation
7 Mechanisms of Actuation (2) Area sensing Imaging and virtual detectors Microwave sensing
8 Detection Type Point detection ( passage type) A single detector is placed for each approach lane to be actuated. The detector relays information as to whether a vehicle has passed over the detector. Area detection ( presence type) Generally used in conjunction with volume-density controllers. The importance is placed on the existence of a vehicle (s) in the detection area. They count the number of vehicles stored in the detection area.
9 Actuated Control Features and Operations Minimum green time (Initial green + unit extension) Passage time interval, unit or vehicle extension Maximum green time Recall switch (unless the subsequent phase has the recall on green remains to the previous phase unless demand exists)
10 How the maximum green time works (Semi-actuated)
11 How the maximum green time works (Fully actuated)
12 Steps for Actuated Signal Timing Design Step-1: Phase Plan Step-2: Minimum Green Time Step-3: Passage Time Step-4: Critical Lane Volumes Step-5: Yellow and All Red Intervals Step-6: Initial Cycle Length Step-7: Pedestrian Requirements
13 Step-1: Phasing We already know this step from last class
14 Step-2: Minimum Green Time Minimum green times must be set for each phase in an actuated signalization, including the nonactuated phase of a semi-actuated controller. Point or passage detectors: G min l 1 d 2* Int 25 Area or presence detectors: G l 2n min 1 (d/20) the number of vehicles between the stop bar and the detector. n = the number of vehicles queued at the beginning of green. Gmin = minimum green time, s l 1 = start-up lost time, s D = distance between detector and STOP line, ft 25 = assumed head-to-head spacing between vehicles in queue, ft 2 = 2 sec headway
15 Step-3: Passage Time Area or Presence Detection PT: Passage Time in sec MAH: Maximum Allowable Headway Sa: Average approach speed Lv: Length of the vehicle Ld: Length of the detection zone PT = MAH L v + L d 1.47 S a
16 Step-3: Passage Time Point Detection Equal to MAH Minimum Passage Time PT min = d 1.47 S 15 S 15 is the 15 th percentile approach speed
17 Step-4: Critical Lane Volumes We already know this step
18 Step-5: Yellow Interval ITE recommends the following methodology for determining length of yellow or change interval y = t S 85 2a + ( G) Where, y-> length of the yellow interval t->driver reaction time, s S 85 -> 85 th percentile speed of approaching vehicles in mi/hr a-> decelleration rate of vehicles, ft/sec G-> Grade of approach, %
19 Step-5: All Red Interval All Red = AR = w + L or P + L S 15 S 15 L = length of the clearing vehicle, normally 20 feet W = width of the intersection in feet, measured from the upstream stop bar to the downstream extended edge of pavement P = width of the intersection (feet) measured from the near-side stop line to the far side of the farthest conflicting pedestrian crosswalk along an actual vehicle path w P
20 Step-5: Determine Lost Time L = i t Li t Li = l 1i +l 2i l 2i = Y i e i Y i = y i + ar i L: total lost time in the cycle, sec/cycle t Li : Total lost time for phase i l 1i : Start-up lost time for phase i (2 sec) l 2i : Clearance lost time for phase i e i : encroachment of effective green (2 sec)
21 Step-6: Initial Cycle Length C des = 1 L V c 1615 PHF ( v c ) C des -> Desirable cycle length, s L-> total lost time per cycle, s/cycle PHF-> Peak Hour Factor v/c-> target v/c ratio for the critical movements in the intersection Vc-> Sum of critical lane volumes
22 Step-6: Phase Green Times g i = (C L) V ci V c Where, g i -> effective green time for phase i, sec V ci -> CLV for phase or sub-phase i, veh/hr V c -> Sum of all CLVs
23 Step-6: Critical Cycle Length C c = (G i + Y i ) i Cc: Critical cycle length, sec Gi: Actual maximum green time for phase i Yi: Sum of yellow and all red intervals for phase i
24 Step-7: Pedestrian Requirements G p = N ped + L S p for Where, G p -> Minimum pedestrian crossing time L-> Length of the crosswalk, ft S p > Average walking speed of the pedestrians N ped -> Number of pedestrians crossing per cycle in a single crosswalk, Nped W E -> Width of the crosswalk, ft 3.2-> Allocated as minimum start-up time for pedestrians L/Sp - > Time to cross safely Additional start up time based on the volume of pedestrians that need to cross the street
25 Step-7: Pedestrian WALK Indication Walk Indication Where, Up-raise hand flashing WALK min = N ped G p -> Minimum pedestrian crossing time L-> Length of the crosswalk, ft S p > Average walking speed of the pedestrians N ped -> Number of pedestrians crossing per cycle in a single crosswalk, Nped W E -> Width of the crosswalk, ft Up raise hand flashing = L S p
