Abstract

Traffic engineers are faced with safety challenges at rural, high-speed, signalized intersections. Traditional multiple advance detector systems provide green extension and prevent rear-end crashes; however, several deficiencies limit their safety benefit. An innovative detection-control system was developed for TxDOT to reduce crashes at rural intersections and provide truck priority.
