This course will introduce the participants to the design of an at-grade intersection and how a road safety audit will look into the road safety issues. It will cover the guidelines of the various Arahan Teknik Jalan guidelines by Jabatan Kerja Raya or JKR.
  
The course will cover:
•    The role of the road engineer/designer, road safety auditor and
        authorities
•    The principles of design such as location and spacing of intersections
•    Design controls eg selection of intersection type
•    Geometric standards such as alignments and sight distance
   Right and left turn lanes, pavement tapers and auxiliary lanes
   Capacity of intersections
   Pedestrian facilities and signalisation
   Location of traffic signs, pavement markings and lamp poles
•    Standard TMP layouts and their various zones
•    What does a road safety audit look out for – practical issues

At the end of the course, participants, especially designers will be able to appreciate how to design an intersection and contractors will be able to understand basic TMP layouts, where to place traffic signs, draw pavement markings and locate traffic signals and street lights.
