Develop Peak Period Traffic Operations Model Clause Samples

The 'Develop Peak Period Traffic Operations Model' clause requires the creation of a detailed model that simulates and analyzes traffic flow during the busiest times of day. This typically involves collecting data on vehicle volumes, travel times, and intersection performance during morning and evening rush hours, and using specialized software to predict congestion points and evaluate potential improvements. By mandating this model, the clause ensures that traffic management strategies are based on accurate, scenario-specific data, ultimately helping to optimize roadway performance and reduce delays during peak travel periods.
Develop Peak Period Traffic Operations Model. The Engineer shall develop a traffic operations model for the study corridor utilizing common industry software. The Engineer and the State shall agree upon and identify the traffic simulation and analysis software to be utilized for the study corridor such as VISSIM, VISTRO, and SimTraffic/Synchro. Videos of the model analysis shall be prepared for use at the second public meeting to represent existing conditions and anticipated conditions assuming implementation of recommended improvements. The simulation model shall be developed for the weekday PM peak period. In addition, either the AM peak period or weekend peak period shall be modeled, depending on which is determined to be more critical based on traffic volume data collected for each traffic analysis segment. The model shall include the signalized cross streets and un-signalized intersections listed, as well as driveways within the analysis segment. Driveways for which turning movement counts shall be conducted shall be identified by the Engineer during field reconnaissance at the beginning of this project. Traffic volumes for driveways not counted shall be estimated based on the representative driveway counts conducted. The traffic analysis shall result in an evaluation of various performance measures, which could include capacity and level-of-service, vehicular delay, travel time and speed, and fuel consumption. The existing conditions traffic simulation model shall be used for the traffic operations evaluation of short-term improvements developed. The results of the model shall be used to compare roadway and intersection traffic operations before and after the implementation of the recommended short-term access management measures. While no Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) funding is involved in this planning level study, air quality benefits for delay reduction may be calculated by the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) for future use as a possible State Implementation Plan commitment. This shall require the MPO modeling a forecasted year using one of the years the MPO already models to minimize input needs. The models shall be utilized by the Engineer for more detailed traffic operations analyses at major intersections. This analysis shall result in an evaluation of various performance measures, which could include capacity and LOS, vehicle DocuSign Envelope ID: 0FF49D32-D279-4718-B36E-004C4194E751 DocuSign Envelope ID: 33059790-9D6A-4832-8E47-37328128C4A4 Contract No. 36-6IDP...

  • Supplier Development lf the Buyer identifies problems in supplier performance based on supplier monitoring, he shall initiate improvement measures at the Supplier. The Buyer shall pursue the possibilities of continuous improvement of the Supplier. The supplier audit is a form of supplier development; the exchange of information and experience between the Buyer and the Supplier also serves this purpose.

  • Synchronization, Commissioning and Commercial Operation 5.1.1 The SPG shall give PGVCL at least thirty (30) days’ advanced preliminary written notice and at least fifteen (15) days’ advanced final written notice, of the date on which it intends to synchronize the Solar Power Project to the Grid System. 5.1.2 Subject to Article 5.1.1, the Power Project may be synchronized by the SPG to the Grid System when it meets all the connection conditions prescribed in applicable Grid Code then in effect and otherwise meets all other Indian legal requirements for synchronization to the Grid System. 5.1.3 The synchronization equipment and all necessary arrangements / equipment including RTU for scheduling of power generated from the Project and transmission of data to the concerned authority as per applicable regulation shall be installed by the SPG at its generation facility of the Power Project at its own cost. The SPG shall synchronize its system with the Grid System only after the approval of synchronization scheme is granted by the head of the concerned substation/ and checking/verification is made by the concerned authorities of the PGVCL. 5.1.4 The SPG shall immediately after each synchronization/tripping of generator, inform the sub-station of the Grid System to which the Power Project is electrically connected in accordance with applicable Grid Code. In addition, the SPG will inject in-firm power to grid from time to time to carry out operational/ functional test prior to commercial operation. For avoidance of doubt, it is clarified that Synchronization / Connectivity of the Project with the grid shall not to be considered as Commissioning of the Project. 5.1.5 The SPG shall commission the Project within nine (9) Months from the Date of execution of this PPA. Declaration of COD shall be certified by the commissioning committee. 5.1.6 The Parties agree that for the purpose of commencement of the supply of electricity by SPG to PGVCL, liquidated damages for delay etc., the Scheduled Commissioning Date as defined in this Agreement shall be the relevant date.

CONTRACTOR shall attend LEA test training and comply with completion of all coding requirements as required by ▇▇▇.

  • Development Period The Contractor may commence pre-construction activities like utility shifting, boundary wall construction or any other activity assigned to the Contractor by the Authority to enable construction of the Project Highway immediately after signing of the Agreement, to the extent that such work is ready for execution. The Parties agree that these works may be taken up and completed to the extent feasible by the Contractor, before declaration of the Appointed Date, but no claim against the Authority for delay shall survive during this period and that the undertaking of these works by the Contractor shall not count towards the Scheduled Construction Period of the project which starts counting only from the Appointed Date. No construction activity of the Project Highway shall be undertaken during the development period.

  • Emergency Mode Operation Plan Contractor must establish a documented plan to enable continuation of critical business processes and protection of the security of electronic County PHI or PI in the event of an emergency. Emergency means any circumstance or situation that causes normal computer operations to become unavailable for use in performing the work required under this Agreement for more than twenty-four (24) hours.
