 +While some RCA's may not require delay calculations for every site, a good practice is to provide a basic outline of delay calculations where delays are expected. Avoid putting "Provided upon RCA request" or similar in your TMP as it shows you haven't considered the impact of your TTM on the road. As a TMP designer it is a part of your responsibility to ensure the traffic management you propose doesn't have an adverse affect to the road users.
  
 +Delay calculations also assist with providing guidance as to what TTM to install, and what notifications are required. If a site is expecting significant delays, it may prompt the TMP designer to put out more public notification such as VMS boards, social media notifications, and similar.
