Determining the Spatial and Temporal Extents of a Queue Upstream of a Bottleneck

Abstract: 

A simple approach is presented for modifying an input-output (or queueing) diagram to measure the time and distance spent by vehicles in a queue. The fundamental diagram and input-output diagrams are described. The extent of queues in time and space also is described.
