Calculation of Entry Capacity: 1. Solve For The Capacity of Right-Turn Lane and Through and Left-Turn Lane

1) The document calculates the entry capacity, degree of saturation, utilization ratio, delay, and 95th percentile queue length at the lanes of four approaches (south, north, east, west) to an intersection. 2) It first solves for the capacity and degree of saturation at each lane, then uses those values to calculate the utilization ratio. 3) It then calculates the average entry capacity, delay, and 95th percentile queue length for each approach using the lane values and formulas provided.
