Abstract (2. Language):
Junctions are most vulnerable places. Especially at
signalized junctions, right turning movement is mainly
responsible for congestion and accident. In this highway at
each junction, 4 right turns and 2 crossings are prevented by
continuous divider and 4 left turns and 2 crossings are allowed.
The rest 4 right turns and 2 crossings are done by 2 U-loops at
2 ends. So no signal is needed to be introduced. So the flow is
continuous and capacity increased by almost 10 times than
signalized junctions. So if the junctions along the length of
approaching roads on both sides of any bridge or other
essential new construction are avoided by constructing a
superhighway, so in future there will be no risk of capacity
exhaustion and also it will reduce the accident rate at initial
stage. So though the construction is costly, it will be cost
effective and one of the best solutions of congestion and
accident at approach roads. Main necessities of super highway
near approach road are as all signals are avoided so, there will
be no delay. Most economic trip will be generated. At initial
stage, the traffic volume will be less and speed will be very
high. So collision will be higher with severity. Super highway
can be able to reduce the accident rate on a large scale
