I was thinking of the QBH branch library just North of the LIE, not the Flushing branch.

A right turn from Main St is permitted onto 60th Ave, which is where the QBH branch is located. It used to be easier, when 142nd St extended all the way to Main St. The first QBH branch renovation expanded the library into what was a short block of 142nd St. The Palace Diner completed hiding it.

There's an inherent conflict with a curb bus stop before a street that permits right turns. This could be resolved by having a bus only signal to permit the bus to leave the bus stop. The bus only signal would be activated by a transponder on the bus. I don't know whether that's part of the traffic signal changes that will be made. They won't start the traffic signal changes until 2016-2017.
