volum es. It should be noted that generally a level of service worse than D will not be achieved unless the v/c ratio exceeds 1.00. For this reason, based on the v/c ratio criteria, the project list for the LOS D and LOS E standard are the sam e. The project list for the second-highest-hour standard includes fewer projects since the intersection volum es are lower.

(1) Simulation show s that the permitted left-turn phas e on the w estbound approach is not adequately served causing extended queues that block upstream intersections. It is assumed that an exclusive left-turn lane w ould be provided on this approach under a ll LOS standards considered.
