Innovative Intersection Design
This brief summarizes an evaluation of the Federal Highway Administration’s (FHWA’s) Innovative Intersection Design (IID) program. FHWA’s IID research and development (R&D) includes diverging diamond interchanges (DDIs), restricted crossing U-turns (RCUTs), displaced left turns (DLTs), median U-turns (MUTs), and mini-roundabouts. The purpose of the evaluation was to assess the effects of FHWA’s investment in IID research on the availability and quality of such research, the adoption of IIDs in the United States, and the impact of those intersections on safety and operational performance.
