8 Developed by Access Utah County (AUC), I-15 CORE and the TOC Reviewed by UDOT Technical Committee For DDI feasibility on other projects

10 Main goal is to reduce delay: Accommodate the left turn movements Reduce the number of signal phases Only two signal phases are required, compared with 3 for a SPUI, or 4 with a diamond

11 Operational Failure when: A + B > 1900 vph

12 Operational Failure when: A + B > 1900 vph A + C > 1900 vph

13 Operational Failure when: A + B > 1900 vph A + C > 1900 vph B + C > 1900 vph

14 Operational Failure when: A + B > 1900 vph A + C > 1900 vph B + C > 1900 vph A + B + C > 2100 vph

15 Operational Failure when: A + B > 1900 vph A + C > 1900 vph B + C > 1900 vph A + B + C > 2100 vph Transition from LOS D to LOS F is very short. For this reason, UDOT defines LOS C as a minimum for acceptable operation.

16 Considerations: Weaving and merging Signal timing Driver behavior Intersection spacing Requires use of micro-simulation software UDOT requires use of VISSIM (PTV America) for analysis

17 Considerations: Traffic & Pedestrian Volumes Multi-Lane Turning Movements Merging & Weaving Operations within the Interchange Non-traditional Signal Warrant Analysis

21

22 Proximity of side streets, railroads, etc. Accommodation of pedestrians Existing geometric constraints in retrofit projects

23 Ramp terminal separation distance Crossover intersection layout and grading Signing and Striping Lane and Shoulder Widths Glare Reduction Roadway Cross-Section

24 To provide for queue storage and weaving space, crossover intersections should be spaced 850 apart, with adjacent signalized intersections 1000 from the crossover intersections. Right-in/Right-out access points may be placed according to the UDOT Access Management rules. Placement of accesses closer than 1000 should be analyzed using VISSIM to determine potential operational effects.

25

26 Design speed through the crossover is reduced at least 10 mph, with a minimum speed through the curves of 25 mph. Utilize reverse curves without tangents to minimize length of crossover zones.

27

28

29 Placement of glare screen is specific to each DDI design, and may affect horizontal alignments. Line-of-sight calculations should be used. Additional study required to identify appropriate design parameters.

30

31 Shoulder widths should NOT be reduced across structure Lane widths should be at least 12 feet Turning templates for side by side WB-67 or other appropriate design vehicle should be applied

45 Access Justification Report (AJR) Used by FHWA for all modifications to the interstate system. The AJR is not a substitute for the NEPA process, and the NEPA process does not eliminate the need for a AJR document. Addresses the eight policy points defined by FHWA as a type of warrants process.

46 When compared with SPUI or Diamond interchanges: ADVANTAGES Higher left-turn capacity No exclusive left-turn lanes Smaller structures Two-phase signal provides flexibility in timing Smaller ROW footprint at the interchange DISADVANTAGES Contrary to driver expectation Operation sensitive to signal and street spacing Rapid transition from LOS D to LOS F ROW impacts at crossover intersections Integration of pedestrian traffic

47 Design/Build contractors may submit the DDI interchange type as an alternate concept; RFP should be written to address the possibility. Operational analysis of a DDI requires specific software and requires more review time. Retrofit of existing structures may extend the operational life of the interchange for much less than reconstruction.

48 Thank you for your time.
