Thank you Tom! That is an excellent suggestion and a much needed change.
Thank you for persisting in pursuing it. Based on my experience with the
City, it will only take them a couple of years to get around to painting
some new stripes. LOL.

We've already written the work order so now we just need the striping crew
to get it done. I don't know their work load for sure but I'd say it's a
matter of days, not weeks.

Jessica,
Thought I would check and see if anything is happening on changing the
east side of Brodie-Davis intersection from 1 left turn South and 1communal
straight-westbound / right turn-Northbound lanes into 3 lanes separate lanes
for all 3 traffic possibilities.
Wednesday I waited again through 3 lights to go straight through
westbound, starting before the top of the hill. I watched only 1 car turn
left!
Today I had a similar situation except 2 cars turned left with over 15 cars
waiting to turn right or go straight.
I've even seen a car or two in the striped out section between the two
existing lanes who went straight when the light changed to avoid waiting.
In my opinion as a temporary partial fix, the right lane sensor would be
tripped by those going straight if the right lane would be made narrower
into a right lane only and the blocked off space were expanded into it to form
a straight through lane. This would be a minimal cost until the sensors
could be modified.
