  3. Abstract:
  4. In this paper, the results of a study comparing the performance of two types of interchange, i.e., Conventional Diamond Interchange and Single Point Urban Diamond Interchange, are reported. The analysis is based on simulation of a Single Point Urban Diamond Interchange. The real data that is collected from two different existing Conventional Diamond Interchanges during peak hours is used as input for analysis. Highway capacity software is used to analyze the performance of the Conventional Diamond Interchanges while a simulation model is used for analyzing the performance of the Single Point Urban Diamond Interchanges. The results indicate that the performance of the Single Point Urban Diamond Interchange is superior to that of the Conventional Diamond Interchange
