SYNOPSIS
The XT Junction is a type of displaced right turn junction that has seen some limited use in the UK and USA. It reduces the number of conflicts by introducing a second set of signalised traffic signals at the minor arm that enables drivers to switch lanes and makes the right turn unopposed. The speakers will share with the audience the details of the XT junction design with a relevant example where a similar design has been implemented in the UK and a case study where the design is suitable to be ably in Malaysia to help tackle traffic problems with respect to environmental challenges.
Join us for an engaging discussion on sustainability, transportation, and more.
