Description
At the Willow St highway entrance ramp, there are two lanes, a left turn lane and a straight lane. The left turn lane has a normal traffic signal with red light, yellow light, green arrow. Next to that there's a sign indicating "LEFT TURN SIGNAL". In the straight lane, there's 2 green lights. There's no need for 2 lights in the straight lane, and it's clearly confusing for drivers. Drivers often turn left on red here instead of waiting for the left turn signal to turn green, and when waiting for the signal to turn green, I've been honked at and occasionally passed on the right by cars eager to turn left on red.
If you remove the middle light on the poles, it might be more clear that the green light is for the right lane only.
