Are there plans for a light at that crazy intersection? (Not to mention street signs)
Today some idiot lady pulled out of the old stagecoach as I started for my left turn. Totally not looking she would have seen me.
There is just too much going on at that intersection.

that would be nice....as well as how about street signs hanging down from the traffic signals at major intersections in town like every other town has...i guess thats too much to ask or not in the budget

I'm doubting it, with the plans to put an overpass in. It would be a bad idea anyway, having a light so close to railroad tracks.

how about a one of those blinking ambers.
I hate when I approach the intersection b/4 the person making the left turn and they block the intersection How inconsiderate what about the right of way.

Are you saying you approach 347 from MCGH and then someone from 347 stops in the intersection to make a left turn on MCGH? If so, that is the normal procedure. Because there are no stop signs on 347, you have no priority and thus must wait indefinitely until the intersection is clear. In other words, you have no right of way.

Blinking amber? Do you mean blinking red? If so, that would be just like putting up stop signs. It would create a huge traffic jam for all directions at that intersection. The best solution is to just sit there and be patient. If you want to see the results of putting up too many traffic lights, drive around ASU. That is horrible between classes.
