Intersection Phase Design Guide

The document designs a four phase signal cycle for an intersection. It calculates the demand and capacity for each phase. Phase 1 has a green time of 23 seconds, Phase 2 has 19 seconds, Phase 3 has 23 seconds, and Phase 4 has 13 seconds. The total cycle length is 96 seconds with 17 seconds for intergreen times.
