Calculate the critical volume then estimate the green time interval for each phase of the intersection using the data provided below. Assume that the intersection will operate as a simple two phase cycle with a 90 second cycle length. Please also assume 2 lanes per intersection approach.

Yellow + all-red is 4.5 seconds / phase

Northbound peak hour volume is 460 vph

Southbound peak hour volume is 700 vph

Westbound peak hour volume is 760 vph

Eastbound peak hour volume is 860 vph
