Flashing Left-Turn Arrow Information
A flashing yellow arrow means left-turns are permitted, but drivers must yield to oncoming traffic, pedestrians, and bicyclists. These new signal displays are designed to make it easier for drivers to know what to do when making a left-turn and reduce accidents at signalized intersections. The key for drivers to remember is what the signal colors mean - red means stop, yellow means use caution, and green means proceed.

Traffic & Safety Study Methodology
The City of Durham uses a combination of methods to identify study locations. Experts agree that there is not one method used that is superior. The city uses a systematic approach based on the frequency and severity methods to identify candidate study locations.
