Concept explainers

Intersection Design

An intersection is a location where two or more roads or railways meet or join. The traffic movement is controlled at the intersection that depends on its design and type. It governs the operation, efficiency, speed, capacity, and safety of the highways, airways, and railways. The movement of the pedestrian causes hazards and delays at the intersection.

Determine whether a T intersection (one leg on the minor approach) with the hourly volume data satisfy MUTCD Warrant 3 (peak-hr vehicular volume) for signalization.

The major street speed limit is 60 km/h, and the minor street speed limit is 40 km/h.
