The methodology for signalized intersections is disaggregate; that is, it is
designed to consider individual intersection approaches and individual lane
groups within approaches.
Segmenting the intersection into lane groups is a relatively simple process
that considers both the geometry of the intersection and the distribution of
traffic movements.
Demand volumes are best provided as average flow rates (in vehicles per hour)
for the analysis period.
However, demand volumes may also be stated for more than one analysis period,
such as an hourly volume.
In such cases, peaking factors must be provided that convert these to demand
flow rates for each particular analysis period.
In that case,
