Route 135 s/b exit 8 (Powell ave) 135 ramp has 2 lanes (1 for traffic going west (left) onto Powell, 1 for traffic going east (onto Powell toward Bethpage parkway ).. A> During evening rush hours and other busy times, the cars on this exit ramp back up almost to the 135 main road with cars waiting to make the left onto Powell ave east. Due to the limited sightlines at this corner, pavement markings and slight curve to the road it is hard to see if the road is clear, to make the left turn. 
A traffic light would provide for a safer intersection for drivers, and the many joggers/bike riders that use this road. The light can be sensor controlled to keep it green on Powell when there are no cars exiting from 135.. ... B> due to the road markings on Powell ave – the dbl yellow line is not in the center (the cars driving west on Powell ave overpass travel too close to the right side of the bridge, making it hard for cars exiting the 135 ramp to see them w/o slowly inching out). A traffic light at this intersection would improve safety and improve the flow of exiting vehicles from the 135 s/b exit onto Powell Ave. (Note there are several other 135 exits that have traffic lights at where the ramps meet residential streets Old country road, 107, boundary Ave.
