PASSER II
PASSER II (Progression Analysis and Signal System Evaluation Routine, Tool II arteries) was originally developed in 1974 by the Texas Transportation Institute (TTI). PASSER II is an arterial-based bandwidth optimizer, which determines phase sequences, cycle length, and offsets for a maximum of 20 intersections in a single run. Splits are determined using an analytical (Webster’s) method, but are fine-tuned to improve progression (18). PASSER II assumes equivalent pre-timed control, but it does represent dual-ring phasing. PASSER II requires traffic flow and geometric data, such as design hour turning volumes, saturation flow rates, minimum phase lengths, distances between intersections, cruise speeds, and allowable phase sequencing at each intersection. Transportation Research Circular E-C014: Traffic Analysis Software Tools 12 The PASSER II timing outputs include design phase sequences, cycle length, splits, and offsets, and includes a time-space diagram. Performance measures include volume-to- capacity ratio, average delay, total delay, fuel consumption, number of stops, queue length, bandwidth efficiency, and level of service. In addition to the time-space diagram, PASSER II has a dynamic progression simulator, which lets the user visualize the movement of vehicles along the artery using the design timing plan. PASSER III PASSER III, also developed by TTI, analyzes signalized diamond interchanges. The program can evaluate existing conditions and optimize signal timing that minimizes average delay. It may also calculate signal timing plans for interconnecting a series of interchanges along one-way frontage roads, similar to PASSER II. PASSER III is capable of analyzing various multi-phase treatments, either with or without left-turn lanes, including permitted, protected, and permitted-plus-protected left- turn treatments. Common types of diamond interchanges analyzed by the program include half diamond, full diamond, full diamond with frontage roads, and split diamond. PASSER III requires the same basic data as PASSER II, but the volume data must be specific as to interchange entry-exit points and additional data are needed on internal storage capacities. PASSER III results are similar to that of PASSER II in terms of MOEs and signal timing settings, but no animated display is available. Download 284.29 Kb. Do'stlaringiz bilan baham: |
