Right-turn Traffic Volume Adjustment in Traffic Signal Warrant Analysis
… by the Nevada Department of Transportation (NDOT). Right-turn traffic does not affect intersection performance in the same magnitude as through or left-turn traffic. Therefore, it is necessary to apply an adjustment to the right-turn volume when conducting signal warrant analysis. Without any …
