    Junction Capacity

    The document contains calculations of traffic capacities (qs) and resulting RFC values for different links between Warwick, Banbury, and A41. It calculates qs and RFC for links BC, BA, and CB in both directions, taking into account lane widths, total widths, and traffic volumes on other links. Capacities range from 73.5 to 585.5 passenger car units per hour. RFC values below 0.5 indicate the traffic demand is below the link capacity.
