Which could have been fixed by a turning signal light.
Exactly. They would've had to change the E Boyd lights to go one lane at a time, but this probably would've cleared traffic much better than what it was and the new setup. Lots of people are going to probably try to cut through the Mellow Lot.

One just happened. Light is already changed, went to sonic, and watched someone run into the light pole at that intersection.

I shudder to think of how horrendous this is going to be during the school year. Hopefully I move before then

I have to live in this godforsaken place until December. I think I'm going to become a cyclist. Ride the crosswalks/sidewalks/lots all the way to CEBA.

Has it really only been up today?
I wonder if that guy made crash #1, or if there were others before him today.

quote:i'm usually quick to defend traffic solutions, but i sure hope they gave a lot more green time to west parker since they're basically forcing anyone who wants to get to nicholson to turn left from parker then right on boyd.
You realize now this will force EVERYONE to get onto Parker if they are in the area just to get to Burbank or Nicholson?
"what they shoulda done" is extended west parker through to nicholson, but they missed their chance b/c now it's that big mixed residential complex. the alignment looks like it's already established, but it runs right through parking stalls now.

So yes. Not even all of today.

But that's too logical for the DOTD.

Now that there isn't a designated time for pedestrians to cross the road, I think we will see more drunk college students getting hit walking home from Bogies and even Tigerland if they are set in their ways.

What they really need to do if they are going to keep this configuration is to make E Boyd a one way in opposite directions from Burbank. Running OW to Highland and OW to Nicholson. Then you force the traffic to those roads that you wanted to and keep the flow moving on Burbank.

wait, you can't go straight across burbank?

No. And it actually makes sense but the flashing yellow right now is just dumb.
Posted on 7/8/14 at 9:29 pm to Harry Caray
Parker is being reconnected to Nicholson. The construction is already underway.

Made the move from Brightside to Inniswold last year. Much rather this side of town.
