I'd rather they make it to wear idiot pedestrians physically cannot cross the street.

Yes yes this is good. We must provide safe corridors for the homeless to navigate from the tent city to the methadone clinic.


Need an update to this classic for Siegen.

I-12 at the Range Rd exit needs flyovers or something. I don't know what the fix is, but whatever they keep trying isn't working. Maybe when they open that bridge and connect all of the with Juban, there'll be a little bit of relief, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

IMHO raised medians is just going to make the turn lanes unbearbaly long.
Maybe so, but the suicide lanes on such a busy road are a pretty severe problem. I’ve almost been in multiple wrecks on this road because of it.

Something like 40% of our state budget comes from the Feds.

It’s hilarious when people complain about welfare queens…the entire state is a welfare queen.

I notice there are no homeless encampments in the digital renderings.

Yup, and they'll b*tch about California in the same breath. Cali is a net giver while LA is a welfare queen like you said.

This will be a huge improvement. It’s dangerous as hell right now. There’s more crashes on Siegen every day than almost any other road in the state.

I get your sentiment about BR here but SG just wasted over a million on road signs that were already there.

If you think it's bad driving down Siegen Lane now, just wait until this construction starts.

This revamp will be good. People complaining about the layout know nothing. "But how I'm gon turn into twin peaks when there's a got-dang WOKE median?!" The traffic is worse BECAUSE there's a wide open suicide lane.

Why does Siegen Lane need a median? They are going to have to put more lights then right?
