A. No Answer Given
Q. Request/Concern Description
A. I am so happy there is a sign on Highland Avenue headed north that says right lane must turn right. This is a very dangerous intersection as people line up in the left lane at stop lights and people shoot around them on the right to bypass them when the light turns green, whether or not they are turning. The problem is when southbound traffic tries to turn and cross in front of them. I have personally encountered many near misses. Thank you so much for putting the sign up. However, it is way too far back for anyone to associated with this actual lane. Why can it not be moved to the next furthest street pole, further north of its current location? I understand it is not feasible to maintain the right arrow painted on the road because of weather reasons but right now, if you didn't know to look for the sign, one almost would not see it. Thank you for your feedback and I remain hopeful that the sign can be moved to a more visible position on an existing pole.
