QUEUEING ON THE MINOR ROAD

FOUR MODELS OF MAJOR AND MINOR ROAD INTERACTION ARE PRESENTED. THESE MODELS COVER THE RANGE OF PRACTICAL SITUATIONS FROM HEAVY DEPENDENT TRAFFIC TO INDEPENDENCE IN THE MAJOR TRAFFIC STREAM. THE MINOR STREAM IS BASICALLY POISSON IN ALL CASES. ALL ANALYSES RELY ON THE SOLUTION TO A FREQUENCY THEORY PROBLEM OF POISSON-DISTRIBUTED BUNCHES WHERE THE BUNCH SIZE MAY HAVE AN ARBITRARY DISTRIBUTION. /AUTHOR/
