=== Lane management ===
Alternative intersection configurations, formerly called unconventional intersections, can manage turning traffic to increase safety and intersection throughput.<ref>{{cite web|last=Badger|first=Emily|title=Could These Crazy Intersections Make Us Safer?|url=http://www.theatlanticcities.com/commute/2013/01/could-these-crazy-intersections-make-us-safer/4467/|work=The Atlantic Cities|publisher=[[Atlantic Media Company]]|access-date=29 January 2013|archive-date=26 January 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130126093734/http://www.theatlanticcities.com/commute/2013/01/could-these-crazy-intersections-make-us-safer/4467/|url-status=dead}}</ref> These include the [[Michigan left]]/[[Superstreet]] (RCUT/MUT) and [[continuous flow intersection]] (CFI/DLT), to improve traffic flow, and also [[interchange (road)|interchange types]] like [[Diverging diamond interchange]] (DDI/DCD) design as part of the [[Federal Highway Administration]]'s Every Day Counts initiative which started in 2012.<ref>https://rosap.ntl.bts.gov/view/dot/29474/dot_29474_DS1.pdf?download-document-submit=Download {{Bare URL PDF|date=March 2022}}</ref>

[[Image:Street intersection diagram.svg|frame|center|Diagram of an example intersection of two-way streets as seen from above (traffic flows on the right side of the road). The east-west street has left turn lanes from both directions, but the north-south street does not have left turn lanes at this intersection. The east-west street [[traffic light]]s also have green left turn arrows to show when unhindered left turns can be made. Some possible markings for crosswalks are shown as examples.]]
