Traffic Signal Timing: pedestrian_timing
HCM 6th Edition (TRB 2016) traffic signal timing parameters — base saturation flow rates, adjustment factors (lane width fw, heavy vehicles fHV, grade fg, parking fp, bus blockage fbb, area type fa, turning fLT/fRT), LOS thresholds A–F by control delay, startup and clearance lost time, yellow/all-red interval design values, pedestrian WALK and FDW timing (MUTCD 2009), Webster optimal cycle length parameters, and v/c ratio thresholds.
| parameter type | record id | description | notes | unit | value max (varies) | value typical (varies) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| pedestrian_timing | buffer_interval | Buffer interval after FDW before conflicting vehicular phase | Steady UPRAISED HAND for ≥3 s prior to release of any conflicting vehicular movement; formerly 2 s in 2003 MUTCD | s | 3 | 3 |
