• <br /> Forced Turn Channelization This technique allows traffic entering or exiting a neighborhood <br /> street to move in one direction only. Its purpose is essentially the same as a diagonal diverter; it <br /> is used to discourage potential or existing through- traffic patterns and limits traffic movement <br /> choice but does not prevent it. <br /> The preferred design for forced turn channelization, for reasons of effectiveness and aesthetics, is <br /> the construction of raised paved or landscaped islands. Forced turn features may also be used at <br /> a signalized intersection to a neighborhood to limit traffic to a left and/or right turn only. <br /> * *INSERT PHOTO ** <br /> (d) <br />
