Evaluating the Performance of Right-Turn-On-Red Operation at Signalized Intersections (with Single and Dual Right-turn Lanes)

The objectives of this research were to (1) evaluate methods for evaluating right-turn-on-red (RTOR) at signalized intersections (right-turn configurations including shared, single, and dual right-turn lanes); (2) develop methods and tools that consider all modes and inform planning and operational decisions; and (3) provide potential modifications to standard references in the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM), NCHRP Report 812: Traffic Signal Manual, and the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD).
