It is shown that when signal cycle length is fixed, pedestrian crossing time imposes upper limit on vehicular capacity of arterial, so that its widening yields diminishing increases in capacity; formulas and diagrams for deriving maximum capacity, taking pedestrian factor into account are presented.
