Traffic lights and routing on dual carriaged intersections

2019-07-25 Thread Curtis Brown
Hi everyone, I want to ask about traffic lights in dual-carriaged intersections. Sometimes the intersections have traffic_lights on the intersecting nodes where the ways cross, and sometimes the lights are outside of the intersecting nodes. Here are two examples of intersections and the
