2: Researcher “Sally” interested in adding
pedestrian approach time to intersection downloads source code
3: “Sally” modifies code to add pedestrian
approach. “Sally” implements version 2 prototype and
uploads source code
for version 2 back into OS Portal
4: Freight researcher “Mac” interested in
adding approach time for freight vehicles
downloads estimator version 2
5: “Mac” modifies code to add freight vehicle
approach times. “Mac” implements version 3 prototype and uploads
source code for version 3 back
into OS Portal
