Abstract: A method for constructing a traffic intersection is disclosed. One version of the intersection includes a protected turn-around lane that allows traffic to turn around and proceed in the opposite direction. The protected turn-around lane provides for a protected turn without having a traffic indicator phase dedicated to protecting such a turn. Another version of the intersection includes an overpass and a protected path through the overpass allowing traffic to turn around and travel in substantially the opposite direction. Another version of the intersection includes an overpass and a protected turn-around lane.
