%X The traffic-operational benefits of signalized median U-turns for left-turning vehicles making indirect maneuvers were studied. The high total volumes entering the intersection with high left-turning traffic is the major factor contributing to saving the average travelling time for U-turn treatment. The provision of the acceleration lane on the cross road is a necessary and effective feature in the geometric design.   <p>Language: en</p>
