Delineation for Divided Highway Intersections and Crossovers
The following delineation is typically used for divided highway intersections and crossovers:
- With left turn bay on approach: Use raised pavement markers (RPMs) to supplement the solid left turn lane line or a double yellow delineator on the opposite median. Figure 8-11 illustrates this application. The RPMs are placed 1 inch inside the left turn lane line and at 10 ft spacing. Use a Type II-C-R RPM. If desired, both the RPMs and double yellow delineator may be used.
- With no left turn bay on approach: Use double yellow delineator on far side of median opening or 4 Type I-A RPMs to supplement lane line on the approach at 20’ spacing. Figure 8-12 illustrates this application. If desired, both the double yellow delineator and RPMs may be used.
