Signalized Intersection Design and Operations: Experiences in Germany and Japan

An official nationwide manual on intersection planning and design remains absent in China. Presently, a research group led by Tongji University is addressing its first version. Toward gaining more profound knowledge on the state of the art in intersection design and operations overseas while developing the Chinese manual, this paper thus presents German and Japanese experiences. Conclusions, future studies and efforts essential for China are discussed in the final section.
