The course will highlight the design techniques available to squeeze extra capacity and efficiency from junctions using signalling methods and geometric configurations. The course uses a combination of lectures and practical workshops using manual and computer based techniques. In particular, some of the basic and advanced features in LinSig 3 will be used to teach advanced design techniques.

The course content includes the following:

• Detection, Control Strategies & Mode Priority
• Designing for Capacity, Efficiency and Safety
• Designing for pedestrians, cyclists and Public Service Vehicles
• Signalled Roundabouts
• Application of Phase Delays
• Interstage Design
• Improving Junction Performance: Stages, Stage Order, Intergreens, Ripple Changing, minimising wasted time, Dummy Phases, Pedestrian clearances, Parallel/ Serial stage streaming, Event and time based CLF plans, UTC, SCOOT and a consideration of international variants such as SCATS.
• Phase Based Design
