) Visibility distances for<br />

) minor road flow is<br />

) measured from a point 10m<br />

) back from the give way<br />

) line<br />

All distances and widths are measured in metres and the ranges of<br />

parameters in the data base were as follows :-<br />

w = 2.05 - 4.70<br />

V<br />

r<br />

= 17.0 - 250.0<br />

V I = 22.0 - 250.0<br />

W CR<br />

= 1.2 - 9.0 (kerbed central reserve only)<br />

W r 6.4 - 20.0<br />

The maximum values of visibility and V used in calculation and<br />

OjK<br />

computation should be 250m and 10m respectively, even if greater values<br />

are physically provided.<br />

N.B.<br />

(i) The equations for Q and Q assume separate lanes for right<br />

and left turning minor road traffic and no simultaneous queueing for<br />

the two movements.<br />

If simultaneous queues are sometimes present<br />

Q B-A is unaffected but the operational left turning capacity<br />

is :~<br />
