At the Flushing location I observed near the library, there is no street to turn right onto, so the sign says only "Buses Only". I'm guessing that at other locations where right turns are possible, the overhead signs will say "Buses and Right Turns Only" along with the dashed lane marking.Vehicles proceeding north on Main St can turn right onto 41st Ave. There is no right turn sign on Kissena Blv onto 41st Ave and has been for some time. This permits pedestrians to cross 41st (on the east side of Kissena) during the Kissena green cycle without cars crossing into their path. There are usually more pedestrians at this intersection than can cross during a single walk cycle. They will frequently spill into Main St's green cycle. This action will interfere with cars trying to turn onto 41st Ave and back them up. I have not checked out these signs. I won't be able to do that until this evening. |
