This report presents results of research efforts designed to develop a tentative standard for determining the need for traffic signals at isolated intersections which are subject to short-duration heavy volume peaking characteristics. The suggested standards, or warrants, are based on volume-delay counts obtained at selected typical intersections and comparable data from other research and simulation studies. Warrant values were tested using similar data from six locations, three in West Virginia, and one each in California, Connecticut and Texas. The intersection configurations and conditions used in this report were three-way intersections located mainly in suburban and rural areas.
