What is "contraflow lane reversal"?
Contraflow lane reversal is a traffic management method where lanes are temporarily switched to allow vehicles to travel in the opposite direction. This is often done during high traffic times, such as rush hours, to help reduce congestion. By changing the flow of traffic, more lanes are made available for vehicles going in the busiest direction. Contraflow lane reversal is typically used on highways or roads with multiple lanes, and traffic signs or signals are placed to guide drivers safely through the change.
Example
During hurricanes, contraflow lane reversal helps evacuate coastal areas quickly and safely.
The city implemented contraflow lane reversal to manage heavy traffic during the marathon race.
Authorities announced contraflow lane reversal to expedite the clearance of a major traffic accident.
