(use the provided answer sheet template). A certain level terrain islocated in Laguna with a population of 250,000. The four-lane major streetintersects the two-lane minor street (controlled with YIELD sign). The approachspeed of major street traffic was observed and found to be 30 mph. The vehiclecomposition during the vehicle count was unknown. Dedicated lanes are notprovided for the right turn from major street. The curb radius within the vicinity ofthe intersection is less than 60 degrees. Existing peak hour volume aresummarized as follows:West-east and east-west through flow = 300 and 400 vph, respectivelyRight and left turns from major street = 100 and 50 vph, respectivelyRight and left turns from minor street = 100 and 50 vph, respectivelyWORKSHEET FOR THE ANALYSIS OF A T-INTERSECTIONLOCATION: LAGUNANAME: GROUP 4
