Peter, Some good wacky "intergreen ideas", but what is this "to improve capacity" mean? Steve "Peter Heath" <P.Heath@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To: tcug@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ter.gov.uk> cc: Sent by: Subject: [TCUG] Wacky Ideas - Intergreen values tcug-bounce@freelists. org 21/06/2004 12:14 Please respond to tcug Going back to Mervyn's original request for wacky ideas, what about the investigation of intergreen values and possible reduction or being more responsive to traffic all to improve capacity. Are the calculations still valid in this day and age? Are they similar to those on the continent? Does removing the starting amber improve capacity? Can we use variable intergreens like on puffins i.e. reduce intergreen on gap out? Can we incorporate additional "tram style" detection i.e. detection on leaving side of junction or stop line? Can we alter intergreens in relation to approach speeds - down as well as up?
