TRB conducted a webinar on Wednesday, June 26, 2019, from 2:00 PM to 3:30 PM ET that discussed diverging diamond interchanges (DDIs). An increasing number of states are utilizing DDIs as a way to potentially solve their congestion and safety hotspots. Research is now underway to determine how states may apply DDIs in specific situations.
This webinar discussed previous and current research into DDIs. The presenters connected this research into the design phase in order to show how DDIs may be implemented. The presenters also described some of the lessons learned by practitioners.
This webinar was organized by the TRB Standing Committee on Geometric Design.
The
slides are available. Contact
