What is a "traffic island"?
A traffic island is a raised area in the middle of a road or at an intersection, designed to separate lanes of traffic or to provide a safe space for pedestrians. It is typically used to guide vehicles and pedestrians, helping to manage traffic flow and reduce accidents. Traffic islands may be planted with grass or trees, or they can be marked with signs or lights to direct drivers and walkers. They help to organize traffic, especially in busy or complex intersections, by preventing cars from crossing into lanes meant for oncoming vehicles.
Example
