This document discusses different types of road intersections and design considerations. It describes two main types of intersections - grade-separated, which use overpasses or underpasses to eliminate conflicts, and at-grade intersections. Some key intersection types are described, including diamond, cloverleaf, and directional interchanges. Design elements like capacity, traffic control, and accommodation of pedestrians and bicycles are also covered. The objective of grade-separated intersections is to eliminate conflicts while accommodating turning movements. Channelization is discussed as a way to reduce the conflict area at intersections.

Transportation planning is an integral part of overall urban planning and needs systematic approach.
Travel demand estimation is an important part of comprehensive transportation planning process.
However, planning does not end by predicting travel demand.
The ultimate aim of urban transport planning is to generate alternatives for improving transportation system to meet future demand and selecting the best alternative after proper evaluation.
Road Junctions and Grade Separators for Transportation Planning - A Junction is an area, where two or more roads join or cross, whose main function is to provide for the change of route directions.
Grade separation is a method developed to avoid the disruption of traffic flow at intersections. It is adopted at junctions where two or more surface transport axes cross with each other.
Grade separation is generally achieved by means of a vertical level.
An intersection is the area shared by the joining or crossing of two or more roads. Since the main function of an intersection is to enable the road user to make a route choice, it is a point of decision. Hence the problems that are encountered by the motorist while passing through an intersection must be recognized and the design should be in such a way that the driving task is as simple as possible.
An intersection is an at-grade junction where two or more roads or streets meet or cross. Intersections may be classified by number of road segments, traffic controls or lane design. (Wikipedia)

Friction Considerations : The friction of skid resistance between vehicle tyre and pavement surface is one of the factors determining the operating speed and the minimum distance requires for stopping of vehicles.
Unevenness : The longitudinal profile of the road pavement has to be even' in order to provide a good riding comfort to fast moving vehicles
Light Reflecting Characteristics : Night visibility depends upon the colour and light reflecting characteristics of the pavement surface. The glare caused by the reflection of head lights is considerably high on wet pavement surface than on the dry pavement.

Hybrid optimization of pumped hydro system and solar- Engr. Abdul-Azeez.pdffxintegritypublishin
Advancements in technology unveil a myriad of electrical and electronic breakthroughs geared towards efficiently harnessing limited resources to meet human energy demands. The optimization of hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems plays a pivotal role in utilizing natural resources effectively. This initiative not only benefits humanity but also fosters environmental sustainability. The study investigated the design optimization of these hybrid systems, focusing on understanding solar radiation patterns, identifying geographical influences on solar radiation, formulating a mathematical model for system optimization, and determining the optimal configuration of PV panels and pumped hydro storage. Through a comparative analysis approach and eight weeks of data collection, the study addressed key research questions related to solar radiation patterns and optimal system design. The findings highlighted regions with heightened solar radiation levels, showcasing substantial potential for power generation and emphasizing the system's efficiency. Optimizing system design significantly boosted power generation, promoted renewable energy utilization, and enhanced energy storage capacity. The study underscored the benefits of optimizing hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems for sustainable energy usage. Optimizing the design of solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems as examined across diverse climatic conditions in a developing country, not only enhances power generation but also improves the integration of renewable energy sources and boosts energy storage capacities, particularly beneficial for less economically prosperous regions. Additionally, the study provides valuable insights for advancing energy research in economically viable areas. Recommendations included conducting site-specific assessments, utilizing advanced modeling tools, implementing regular maintenance protocols, and enhancing communication among system components.
2. Intersection is an area shared by two or more
roads.
This area is designated for the vehicles to
turn to different directions to reach their
desired destinations.
This is because vehicles moving in different
direction want to occupy same space at the
same time.
3. There are two main types of intersection of
roads.
Grade – separated intersections or
interchanges.
At – grade intersections.
4. It is a bridge that eliminates crossing conflicts at
intersections by vertical separation of roadways in
space.
Route transfer at grade separations is accommodated
by interchange facilities consisting of ramps.
The interchange configurations are designed in such
a way to accommodate economically the traffic
requirements of flow, operation on the crossing
facilities, physical requirements of the topography,
adjoining land use, type of controls, right-of-way and
direction of movements.
5. Objective:
The ultimate objective of grade separated
intersections is to eliminate all grade crossing
conflicts and to accommodate other
intersecting maneuvers by merging, diverging
and weaving at low relative seed.
6. One of the distinctions made in type of
interchange is between the directional and
the non directional.
Directional interchanges are those having
ramps that tend to follow the natural
direction of movement.
Non directional interchanges require a
change in the natural path of traffic flow.
8. An underpass or a tunnel is an underground
passageway, completely enclosed expect for
openings for ingress and egress, commonly
at each end.
A tunnel may be for foot or vehicular road
traffic, for rail traffic.
9.
10. An overpass also known as a flyover, is a
bridge, road, railway or similar structure that
crosses over another road or railway.
A pedestrian overpass allows pedestrians safe
crossing over busy without impacting traffic.
11.
12. Trumpet interchanges have been used where
one highway terminates at another highway.
These involve at least one loop ramp connecting
traffic either entering or leaving the terminating
expressway with the far lanes of the continuous
highway.
The principal advantages are low construction
cost and are useful for highways as well as toll
roads.
13.
14. A diamond interchange is a common type of
road junction, used where a freeway crosses a
minor road.
The diamond interchange uses less space
than most types of freeway interchange, and
avoids the interweaving traffic flows that
occur in interchanges such as the cloverleaf.
Diamond interchanges are most effective in
areas where traffic is light.
15.
16. A cloverleaf interchange is a two-level
interchange in which left turns are handled by
ramp roads.
To go left(in right-hand traffic), vehicles first
continue as one road passes over or under
the other, then exit right onto a one-way
three-fourths loop ramp (270) and merge
onto the intersecting road.
17.
18. Partial clover leaf is a modification that
combines some elements of a diamond
interchange with one or more lops of a
cloverleaf to eliminate only the more critical
turning conflicts.
It provides more acceleration and
deceleration space on the freeway.
19.
20. A Directional interchange provides direct for left
turns.
These interchanges contain ramps for one or
more direct or semi direct left turning
movements.
Interchanges of two freeways or interchanges
with one or more very heavy turning movements
usually warrant direct ramps, which have higher
speeds of operation and higher capacities,
compared to loop ramps.
21.
22. At-grade intersections in which all the
exchanges between the roads take place on
the sane plane.
These are of two types
Standard at-grade intersections
Round about at-grade intersections.
23.
24.
25.
26. Simple intersections maintain the street’s
typical cross-section and number of lanes
throughout the intersection, on both the
major and minor streets.
Simple intersections are best-suited to
locations where auxiliary (turning) lanes are
not needed to achieve the desired level-of-
service.
27.
28. Vehicles approaching an intersection are directed to
definite paths by islands, marking etc. and this
method of control is called channelization.
Channelized intersection provides more safety and
efficiency.
It reduces the number of possible conflicts by
reducing the area of conflicts available in the
carriageway.
If no channelizing is provided the driver will have less
tendency to reduce the speed while entering the
intersection from the carriageway.
32. Cross-section- Bicyclists position themselves
for their intended destination regardless of
the presence of bike lanes or shoulders.
Operating Speed- At un signalized
intersections, an average bicycle speed of 15
miles per hour can be assumed on the major
project.
33. Bicycle Capacity - The number of bicycles
per hour that can be accommodated by the
facility under normal conditions.
Traffic Control - Bicyclists are required by
law to obey control devices at intersections.
Therefore, traffic control devices need to
account for bicycle activity.
34. Design Vehicle
*The largest type of motor vehicle that is normally
expected to be accommodated through the intersection.
*At intersections, the most important attribute of design
vehicles is their turning radius, which in turn influences
the pavement corner radius and therefore the size of the
intersection.
*Lane width, another feature related to the design vehicle,
has some impact on intersection design.
* The design vehicle appropriate for most types of transit
service is the “city-Bus” as defined by AASHTO.
41. Intersection area is paved and there is absolutely
no restriction to vehicles to use any part of
intersection area.
Hence the un channelized (all-paved) intersections
are the lowest class of intersection, easiest in the
design but most complex in traffic operations
Resulting in maximum conflict area and more
number of accidents, unless controlled by traffic
signals or police.
42. Plain intersection:
No provision for
additional pavement
width for turning
movements
Flared intersection:
Provision for additional
pavement width for
turning movements
43. A small raised area in the middle of a road which
provides a safe place for pedestrians to stand
and marks a division between two opposing
streams of traffic.
(or)
A traffic island is a solid or painted object in a
road that channelizes traffic. It can also be a
narrow strip of island between roads that
intersect at an acute angle.
If the island uses road markings only, without
raised kerbs or other physical obstructions, it is
called a painted island. Traffic islands can be
used to reduce the speed of vehicles driving
through.
44. Divisional Islands: Divisional islands are dividing the
highway in two one way road way so that head on
collision are eliminated and accidents are reduced.
Channelizing Islands: Channelizing islands guide the
traffic into proper channel through the intersection
area.
Pedestrian loading Islands: They are provided at
regular bus stops and similar laces for the protection of
passengers.
Rotary Islands: Rotary islands is the large central
island of a rotary intersection.
45. Rotary intersections or
round abouts are special
form of at-grade
intersections laid out for
the movement of traffic
in one direction around a
central traffic island.
The vehicles entering the
rotary are gently forced
to move in a clockwise
direction in orderly
fashion.
46.
47. IRC suggest that a two-lane of 7m width should be
kept as 7m for urban roads and 6.5 for rural roads.
Further for a three-lane road ofb10.5m is to be reduced
to 7m and 7.5m respectively for urban and rural roads.
The width of weaving section should be higher than the
width at entry and exit. The weaving with is given as,
Where e1 = width of carriageway at the entry
e2 = width of carriageway at the exit
W weaving= {(e1+e2)/2} +3.5 m
48. The capacity of rotary is determined by the capacity of
each weaving section. Transportation road research lab
(TRL) proposed the following empirical formula to find
the capacity of the weaving section.
where is the average entry and exit width, is the
weaving width, is the length of weaving, and is the
proportion of weaving traffic to the non-weaving traffic.
four types of movements at a weaving section, and are
the non-weaving traffic and are the weaving traffic.
