Data collected: November 5, 2015. <br /> <br />Average Vehicle Delay <br />Average vehicle delay was collected at four key intersections along the pilot corridor. Most <br />delay typically occurs at controlled intersections. Therefore, the average vehicle delay provides <br />another way to represent travel time changes as a result of the pilot and incorporates delays <br />experienced by drivers entering the corridor. Average vehicle delay is the average amount of <br />time it takes vehicles on all intersection approaches (including cross-streets) to pass through an <br />intersection. The morning peak hour was picked for the analysis because volumes are highest <br />during the morning and the results illustrate the highest levels of delay. <br />Average vehicle delay is a standard output of the program Synchro, a traffic analysis and <br />modeling software program. Data on traffic volumes, lane configurations, and signal timing <br />before the pilot and during the pilot were inputs into Synchro. <br />Outcome: The calculated delays are summarized in Table 7. <br /> <br />8.A. - Page 18
