Practice question

What is the significance of the 'critical movement analysis' in signal timing design?

  1. Identifying which signal heads are most critical for visibility
  2. Determining the movements with the highest volume-to-saturation-flow ratio in each phase, which dictates the minimum cycle length
  3. Analyzing which movements cause the most crashes
  4. Evaluating which detector locations are most critical for operation

Answer: B — Determining the movements with the highest volume-to-saturation-flow ratio in each phase, which dictates the minimum cycle length
