Existing unconventional intersection designs can enhance the capacity of intersections to deal with repaid pressure on urban commuting, whereas they force vehicles to multi-stop and reorganize, resulting in safety risks and high fuel consumption. This paper proposes the Intermittent Lane Intersection (ILI) that combines the advantages of variable lane intersection and CTE (Combining the tandem control and exit lanes for left-turn control). An integrated optimization model is established to obtain the optimal geometric and signal control parameters, and a homothermic genetic algorithm is used to solve the model. Then, the application of ILI in different traffic demands of the Tianfu Third Street intersection is analyzed. Compared with the benchmark design (TI, CTE, and CTE with signal coordinated control), ILI can effectively reduce intersection delay, fuel consumption, and parking times. Additionally, ILI has great application superiority when the traffic arrival rate is [1500,1700] and the left-turn ratio is [0.40,0.60].
