The Bank of Korea may, when the Monetary Policy Committee deems it necessary for the implementation of monetary and credit policies, request the FSS to perform an examination of a bank and/or other financial institutions, or ask that its staff jointly participate in an FSS-led examination. The Bank of Korea may also request the FSS to send the ...
A box junction in London, pictured from atop the Monument in 1969. A box junction is a road traffic control measure designed to prevent congestion and gridlock at junctions.The surface of the junction is typically marked with a yellow criss-cross grid of diagonal painted lines (or only two lines crossing each other in the box), and vehicles may not enter the area so marked unless their exit ...
Gridlock on a network of two-way streets. The red cars are those causing the gridlock by stopping in the middle of the intersection. Gridlock is a form of traffic congestion where continuous queues of vehicles block an entire network of intersecting streets, bringing traffic in all directions to a complete standstill.
A method of turning a vehicle around (making a 180° turn) in close quarters, such as in the middle of a road at a point other than an intersection. Three-way junction, 3-way junction, 3-way intersection, Y junction, Y intersection, T junction, or T intersection a type of road intersection with three arms. A Y junction generally has 3 arms of ...
Grade-separated pedestrian and cycling routes often require modest space since they do not typically intersect with the facility (such as a highway) that they cross. However, grade-separated pedestrian crossings with steps introduce accessibility problems. Some crossings have lifts, but these can be time-consuming to use.
Instead of blocking intersections, organizers should have a plan to regroup if riders get separated. Apologies to riders who love big groups, but from a safety perspective it’s not a great idea.
In public transport, blocking is the practice of dividing the parts of a scheduled route among vehicles and drivers. It follows the process of dividing the route into trips. In blocking, these trips are pieced together into blocks that are relatively contiguous in space and time. The goal of blocking is to optimize the schedule such that:
Blocking (statistics), in the design of experiments, the arranging of experimental units in groups (blocks) which are similar to one another; Atmospheric blocking, a phenomenon in meteorology of large scale stationary pressure cells; Blocking, in the western blot technique, a process to prevent unwanted binding of antibodies to a membrane
