Definition:

A Green Tee is a 3-leg intersection in which one direction does not have to stop. Vehicles turning left from the corridor and side road have deceleration and acceleration lanes.  A traffic signal controls the opposite direction of corridor traffic, allowing these left turns to occur, just as they do at a traditional intersection.  

Benefits:

• Improves safety by reducing the number of conflict points.
• Increases efficiency by reducing delay at the intersection.
