SUMMARY:LinSig3 - Junction Modelling Computer Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Accurate LinSig modelling is fundamental to traffic signal design\, transport assessments for development and detailed studies where traffic signal junctions are a major determinant of transport outcomes. This course covers the use of LinSig 3 to model traffic signal junctions and is essential for LinSig users wishing to ensure robust and correct modelling. It starts from first principles and concentrates on the use of LinSig for modelling single junctions as well as providing a stepping stone to the LinSig Networks and Advanced features workshop. The course is computer based with practical workshop exercises being used throughout. This online course is delivered by a combination of a conference call and a remote computer lab (giving access to LinSig). You will need a good internet connection to participate but will not need to LinSig to be installed on your PC. \nWho should attend. \nThis course is suitable for anyone who uses or will use LinSig for modelling traffic signal junctions and who requires a comprehensive base of knowledge to ensure their modelling is robust and accurate. As well as being suitable for those new to LinSig it is also suitable as a refresher course for those whose LinSig experience may be with previous versions or otherwise out of date. The course is also appropriate for anyone who\, whilst not building models themselves\, are required to authorise or audit models submitted by others. \nPrerequisites. \nDelegates are expected to have a basic understanding of how traffic signals work and know what is meant by terms such as phase\, stage\, intergreen\, saturation flow and capacity. This and much more can be gained by either attending the JCT Introduction to Traffic Signals 2 day course or the one day JCT Essentials of Traffic Signals for Modellers. \nNo prior knowledge or experience of LinSig is required. \nCourse content. \nSince 1985\, LinSig has been the industry standard modelling software for traffic signal design and assessment. This two day workshop is key training for anyone new to LinSig who needs to produce efficient and accurate modelling as part of traffic signal design or transport assessments. \nThe course involves extensive computer usage and covers the following topics: \nDay 1 \nOverview of main LinSig3 features including lane based modelling\, short lane control and blocking\, assignment of flows to lanes and routes\, comprehensive modelling of traffic signal controllers\, pedestrian links\, flows\, delays and crossing times.\nBuilding a LinSig3 model on a suggested step by step basis including explanations of LinSig3 features in the context of building an actual model.  This includes the use of the many different data and results display options in LinSig.\nRunning LinSig3 models and interpreting the results.  This includes input of signal timings using timing dials or optimisation.  The detailed lane based results are explained and an overview is given of the report builder and print out options.\nModelling give-way left turns and opposed right turns\, including a full appreciation of the components of right turn capacity dependent on the selected stage sequence.\nUse of flow group formulae and component flow groups for the efficient modelling of multiple traffic scenarios in transport assessments. \nDay 2 \nHandling more complicated signal sequences with optimisation of interstage periods using phase delays\, and interaction with phase minimum greens.Certain limitations of controllers as addressed by LinSig3 are illustrated and explained.\nOpposed right turn blocking of lanes shared with vehicles going straight on.  This includes use of LinSig3 delay based assignment to predict lane choice by drivers going straight on who might risk being blocked in the outside lane.\nUnderstanding Cyclic Flow profiles in the context of a complicated double junction and applying cruise times\, platoon dispersion and platoon compression.\nModel auditing and an introduction to the Transport for London LinSig Model Audit Process (LMAP).\nUsing more advanced features such as multiple flares and converting LinSig2 files to LinSig3. \nAccreditation. \nAll JCT courses are Approved or are pending Approval by the Institute of Highway Engineers and attendance is therefore recognised by the IHE and many other bodies as evidence of Continual Professional Development (CPD). \nCourses are managed under a ISO9001 Quality Management System.

SUMMARY:Traffic Signal Design
DESCRIPTION:This four day course covers all the key aspects of the design of Permanent Traffic Signal Design and is structured to equip attendees the skills and knowledge they need to take a design from concept to deployment. Along with comprehensive lectures and course materials there are structured exercises throughout allowing attendees to learn by doing. Comprehensive course notes and training materials are supplied along with access to training laptops with all associated software. \nWho should attend. \nAnyone who is already involved with Traffic Signal Design\, who would like to consolidate and expand their experience. \n  \nPrerequisites. \nThe course requires a degree of prior knowledge including a reasonable understanding of Phases\, Stages\, Intergreens and calculation methodologies leading to Degree of Saturation and Practical Reserve Capacity. These topics are comprehensively covered on the JCT Introduction to Traffic Signals and Basic Introduction to Traffic Signals courses. The course also makes use of LinSig software\, so ideally attendees will have at least basic skills with LinSig. For any attendees who do not have basic signals knowledge and/or are not familiar with the LinSig software a free\, one day online refresher training course will be offered in advance of the Traffic Signal Design course. \n  \nCourse content. \nThis is a four day course delivered jointly by Chris Kennett Consulting Limited and JCT Consultancy Ltd. \nThe course content includes the following: \n\nFundamental Principles of Traffic Signal Design\nOverview of TOPAS Standards & Controller Specification Forms\nAssessing and Managing Risk in Design\, referencing CDM 2015\nConcept Design\nBasic Layouts and Geometry\nPedestrian Crossing layouts and facilities\nActive Travel Infrastructure Design\, referencing LTN 1/20\nAdaptive Control including an overview of MOVA and SCOOT\nController Logic\nHigh Speed Roads\nShuttle Working\nHardware\, including Passive Safety\nDesigning to meet visibility requirements\nDesigning for Maintenance\nPhase Delays\nParallel Stage Streaming\nImproving Junction Performance including Event and Time Based Linking and CLF\nSignalled Roundabout Design\nMajor Design Project (in Teams)\n\n  \nAccreditation. \nAs Vocational Training this course is not currently accredited but will in due course be submitted to the Institute of Highway Engineers’ Course Approval process. \nCourses are managed under a ISO9001 Quality Management System.
