I wasn't talking about the queue space on 94th, but after you make the left onto 103rd. That's probably why they wouldn't allow a left turn there. Even an extra 1,000 feet is time consuming when traffic isn't moving.What about left turns to Metropolitan Avenue going south? cars would have to turn left at the next corner and they would need their own left turn cycle? They would have to fight the shopping center traffic as well to get back to Metropolitan. And they also want to ban the left turn at Union Turnpike except for buses, under the Congested Corridors study. You can't have a street with virtually no left turns allowed. What I don't understand is why they don't post signs telling you where the next left turn is. I once had to go out of my way an extra mile because I didn't know so many left turns we're not allowed. In fact at one of the SBS meetings one of the DOT personnel stated the same thing happened to him getting to the meeting. So the problem should be obvious to them. There are so many things that can be done to improve auto travel and safety, but DOT is only interested in SBS and Vision Zero. |
