Political impossibility.

Why not reduce 110 South to 1 lane before the merge so 10E could keep 2 lanes and Washington street is no longer an exit only lane type exit?

Too late now. The better question would be why not widen I-10 to 4 lanes so that the lane that is exit only at Washington doesn't end. However, that would require moving George's Place out from beneath the overpass, another political impossibility with Smokey as a mayoral candidate for the next go-round.
