This report describes the results of an analysis of the benefits and costs associated with alternative forms of signal control for individual intersections. The forms of signal control considered include pretimed, semi-actuated, basic full-actuated, and volume-density control. The benefits considered for each type of control include stops, delay, capacity, safety, fuel consumption, and emissions. Costs considered include equipment costs, installation, operation, and maintenance costs. The costs and benefits were analyzed for vehicle and roadway characteristics commonly found at individual intersections. In addition, a methodology was developed for identifying the incremental benefits that would be produced by providing coordinated operation when upstream signals are present.
