Developing Warrants for Designing Continuous Flow Intersection

Table 1

Advantages and disadvantages of implementing a CFI design.

Advantages	Disadvantages
Reduced delay and travel time for all the movements	Confusion between the driver and pedestrian
Reduced number of stops for through arterial traffic	Prohibited U-turn possibilities
Increased capacity	Pedestrians cross the intersection in two or more stages
Lower cost in comparison to some alternatives	Additional right-of-way
Better progression for all movements	Lack of access control
Improved safety performance in the intersection	Higher cost in comparison to some alternatives
