... 110 CHAPTER 6. PREDICTIVE MODELS FOR INTERSECTIONS OF URBAN AND SUBURBAN ARTERIALS WITH SIX OR MORE LANES This chapter describes the activities undertaken to calibrate safety predictive models for both signalized and stop-controlled intersections of urban and suburban roadway arterials with six or more lanes.
