The article deals with two types of unconventional intersections – the Median U-Turn intersection and the Superstreet intersection. Available published sources of information have been analyzed for information about the characteristics, design and operations of unconventional intersections. A comparison of unconventional and typical intersections has been made to determine the types of intersections which are more preferable in the specific traffic situations in urban areas. In the process of study it has been identified which of the analyzed intersections provide the best level of service and movement efficiency for the current traffic flow distribution and intensity
