Description
This intersection continues to be extremely dangerous for westbound traffic turning left onto Manning. Pedestrians are also being endangered by this as well, as cars being forced to quickly turn left in an extremely narrow window often fail to notice a pedestrian in the crosswalk until the last second. I do not know why the left turn arrow was taken out of the cycle, but it really should be put back in. Seems like a simple fix.

I've said this for years! Wrote to council and they didn't do anything about it.
Needs a dedicated pedestrian cross time.

Like, forreal see how many near misses there are between pedestrians and left turners (illegal and right on red) daily.
Often times the pedestrian has NO WINDOW to cross even with the crosswalk right of way due to left turners.
