Abstract: Calthorpe Associates was the architect for this TCI. It is in a brand new mixed use, high-end setting. There was concern among citizens that it might not function well, but it in fact functions very well and all are pleased.
Abstract: This was the first CFI in Utah, opened in late 2007. UDOT thought it worked so well they have since built about 4-5 more by 2011, and even more are slated for the future.
Abstract: This site does not force left turns to occur on quadrant roadways, but the design is flexible, giving them a "get out of jail free" card when congestion is so bad that quadrants could improve things. Also improves general connectivity of this busy activity center.
Abstract: Southbound leg of Rio Mixcoac. This CFI also appears in a photograph that is widely circulated. The intersection has 5-legs, which must just be nasty. A 6th leg is visible, but has been barricaded to avoid total chaos.
Abstract: 2nd true Continuous Flow Intersection in the USA. Left turns from Route 228 have crossover. The crossed over lefts then enter a merge lane because southbound traffic on Indian Head Hwy is free-flowing.
Abstract: US 95 traffic is split onto Jackson and Washington, main street retains on-street parking. Beautiful example of a mixed-use, pedestrian friendly area that also has great multi-modal access.
Abstract: As designed, the large outer circle is a two-way road, which could result in significant congestion. However if the outer circle were converted to just counter-clockwise, this would be a true TCI, and likely be extremely efficient. No plans for this, but it is a "Sustainable Design" because it can easily be converted to one-way operation.
