▶ Intersections

"Collisions and injuries – some of them fatal – very often occur at intersections.  The victims are often the most vulnerable road users (i.e. children, older pedestrians, and bicyclists).  If not killed outright, victims can suffer serious and sometimes devastating, lifelong injury.  At intersections with traffic signals, some of the most effective safety measures involve separating road users in time and space.  Examples of separating road users in time include protected-only left-turn phases, stop lights with leading pedestrian intervals, and separate signal phases for bicycle and pedestrian movements.  Examples of separating road users in space include high visibility crosswalks, designated bicycle crossings, and small corner radii which reduce turning speed and expand the pedestrian area, creating a safer environment for all users.  In combination, these measures create what is referred to as a 'Protected Intersection'..." -- Canadian Association of Road Safety Professionals (CARSP): Intersection Safety (October 2025).
