timing plan will bethe basis for Scenario IV-(b).Scenario IV-(b) will strive to have longer, more realistic intervals to increase the intersection’sperformance. MOE’s for this scenario will once again be tabulated. It is anticipated that in thiscase the intersection will be operating rather optimally. To create another scenario there will bea shift in volumes, e.g. twice the volume E-W than N-S, while maintaining the same signaltiming plan - this will be Scenario IV-(c).At the end of all the scenarios, the MOEs from each will be compared to provide both aqualitative and quantitative measure of how different means of controlling an intersectionperform. The instructors will emphasize the use of a traffic signal, and provide the take-homemessage
