Continuous Flow Intersections: The Proven Alternative for Congested Intersections
Its an unfortunate truth that congested intersections tend to become more congested over timedespite the traditional remedies available to transportation professionals. Additional turn lanes and signalization may relieve congestion for a while, but sooner or later adding another turn lane or through lane--or perhaps prohibiting some movementmay be needed. In some cases, the transition to a grade-separated interchange may seem like the only solution. Source: Michael G. Bruce - ABMB Engineers, Inc.
