Special Issues on Signal
Coordination
CEE 764 – Fall 2010
Signal Timing with Large Systems

Difficult to obtain high bandwidth efficiency with
a large number of signals in a system.

Only a small portion of the traffic goes through
the entire arterial.

Seeking a system progression band with low
efficiency may not be a good signal timing
strategy.
CEE 764 – Fall 2010
System Partition Technique

Step 1. Divide the system into sub-systems
(3~5 signals)

Divide at locations of capacity bottleneck and large spacing

Step 2. Obtain maximum bandwidth solution for
each subsystem
 Step 3. Form the peak direction progression
band



Adjust offsets to achieve an one-direction bandwidth (peak)
Subsystem progression is retained for the other direction
Step 4. Fine tune the solution


Possible signal phasing change to improve the off-peak
direction progression band;
Cross street with split phasing should be set at a sequence
favoring progression of the left turns.

Advantages

Maintain maximum progression for the peak
direction.


Maintain maximum progression for the
subsystems.


The one directional progression band for the peak direction is the
maximum that can be achieved from any optimization solutions.
Subsystems have larger bandwidths on both directions.
More control and handle on queue and stops

Progression on the off-peak direction is partially maintained. But the
users have complete control on where to stop vehicles and store
queues.

Pedestrian Timing Treatment





Pedestrian crossing times are handled by
concurrent vehicle through phases
Green time of vehicle phase must satisfy the
WALK + FDW
Vehicle demands are low at minor streets, but
pedestrian crossing times are high (wide street)
Split phasing presents more challenges
Two timing treatments

Example

For a grid one-way street network, each block
has 300 ft. Suppose both directions at each
signal have the same phase splits.
(1) What would be the cycle length if the
progression speed is designed to be 20 mph?
(2) If the cycle length is 60 sec, what would be
the fastest progression speed?
