Abstract
- The paper presents an overview of safety and insights regarding traffic at highway intermediate cross-sections in the interurban highway network. This overview includes rigid and soft 'one plus one' cross-sections, passing lanes traffic and geometric characteristics, as well as criteria for widening a two-lane highway to form a divided multilane highway. The design overview of intermediate highway cross-sections includes traffic and safety warrants, design speed characteristics and cross-section infrastructure components, including elements that enhance traffic safety. These developments are partly an outcome of the new Israeli geometric design policy and controls for rural (interurban) highways. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
