All-way, or multiway, stop signs are perhaps the most controversial form of residential traffic control. Residents are likely to request all-way stop signs more frequently than any other form of control. Stop signs are thought of as panaceas for many traffic problems. The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) receives requests for all-way stop control (AWSC) on residential streets primarily to slow traffic, but also to reduce cut-through traffic. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of AWSC for residential traffic management. The study was limited to the use of AWSC on local residential streets. A comprehensive review of the literature and a questionnaire survey of selected traffic engineering agencies were conducted to identify current use of AWSC. Three case studies using a series of AWSC intersections to reduce cut-through traffic on local residential streets were analyzed.
