Abstract
To improve the capacity of signalised intersections for left‐turn vehicles, an unconventional left‐turn design named the contraflow left‐turn lane is applied at intersections in several cities of China. The main concept of the design is to provide more capacity for left‐turn vehicles by dynamically making use of the adjacent opposite lanes. In this study, a cellular automaton model that simulates left‐turn traffic flow at a signalised intersection with a contraflow left‐turn lane was developed and verified by field data. Rules for vehicles entering the contraflow left‐turn lane were proposed, and various factors including the vehicle type, driver type, and the ratio of U‐turn vehicles were considered. The simulation results showed that the contraflow left‐turn lane could increase the capacity of the intersection and decrease the delay of left‐turn vehicles. Also, the optimal match between the length of the contraflow left‐turn lane and the duration of the pre‐signal green light can be evaluated via simulation. This study can provide a reference for the actual application of contraflow left‐turn lanes.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
