Description

For the northbound Berger Road approach, it would be helpful to change the lanes to a left/thru and right only. Since the side streets have the split phasing, there is no need to make the right turns wait behind thru vehicles.

In my last case, # 6021542, I was told the alignment of that approach would put drivers in the grass median on the other side of the intersection if going straight from the left lane. I respectfully disagree. The alignment from that left lane would almost directly out them in the left lane on Carved Stone. There is already a keep right sign in that median to help drivers avoid the median. If there is a concern over vehicle paths, a dotted line could be installed across the intersection to help drivers.

The current lane assignment is not typical for most intersections with this type of split phasing in our area since people expect the the lefts and throughs to share a lane.

Please reconsider this.
