Abstract:As part of the Design Phase of the Level of Service Project, studies were conducted at this interchange with the objective of determining the means of increasing the capacity of the frontage roads without impairing the movement of traffic on the cross street. The results of the studies indicate that the operation can be improved in three ways: 1. Assign more right-of-way to the critical approaches; 2. Improve the operation of the vehicle queues by decreasing the starting delays and average headways; and 3. Remove traffic which can be rerouted. The modifications in design, control and operation of the interchange necessary to effect these improvements are presented in this report for the consideration of the Texas Highway Department.
