Diamond Intersection
- A diamond intersection is a type of interchange commonly used on freeways where a minor road crosses a major road.
- In this design, the ramps connecting the minor road to the major road form a diamond shape when viewed from above.
- This type of intersection allows for grade separation, meaning the roads cross at different levels to allow for uninterrupted traffic flow on the major road.
Types of Intersections:
- At grade intersection: An intersection where all roads cross at the same level, often controlled by traffic signals or stop signs.
- Four way stop: An intersection where all approaching traffic must stop before proceeding, typically controlled by stop signs at all four approaches.
- Grade separated intersection: An intersection where roads cross at different levels (e.g., bridges or tunnels) to allow for uninterrupted flow of traffic.
- T intersection: An intersection where one road ends and meets another road at a perpendicular angle, forming the shape of a "T".
