When I saw the cars in the left turn lane backed up past Yellowstone, there was no gap in the left lane for cars to go around and swing back as you suggest. Now with that left turn banned southbound, how do you propose cars get to Metropolitan? There is no longer a proposal to make Trotting Course a two-way street.As far as northbound, if you look at DOT's latest document(page 21), they are no longer proposing to add a new left turn onto Cooper. And 73rd Avenue is already hopelessly congested with cars entering and leaving the shopping center parking lot. Adding many more cars will hopelessly congest that route and will ensure that the green time even when extended, will be insufficient for Metropolitan Avenue cars westbound to cross Woodhaven on the first cycle. Add to that cars will also have to deal with the traffic signal at Trotting Course and Metropolitan. You are talking about an additional five to eight minutes to make that left turn going north. |
