Abstract: Models are given for calculating the expected delay to a driver in making several maneuvers at or near a traffic light. These include going straight through, turning left, and various entrances and exits from the traffic stream. Traffic approaching the intersection is assumed to be Poisson. Approximations are used that apply at medium and low traffic flows.
