Model Development. The consultant shall utilize the FDOT approved computer-based tools are to calculate and evaluate signal timing. Since many of these tools assume the presence of under-saturated conditions, it is important to recognize their capabilities and limitations. The requirements for developing timings for saturated and under-saturated conditions should be considered as the model is developed. The consultant should consider the following elements: • Establish a “standards and conventions” document (i.e., file naming, map settings, base data parameters, analysis settings) that provides the user with consistency through the retiming process; • Review the plan development in levels or stages to ensure efficiency; • Coordinate with the respective signal maintaining agencies; and • Include quality assurance and quality control measures.
