Description

This has been rated one of the worst intersections in the nation before. Illustrated are just one of the worst reasons I believe. When exiting I-240 to enter I35 South (going westbound) OR Exiting I35 southbound to enter I240 Eastbound. 25MPH traffic must merge with 60MPH traffic. traffic from the cloverleaf has yeild sign. however traffic from highway must merge into an "exit lane". I believe traffic on the cloverleaf should have a STOP sign or traffic light (think california onramps) to help control flow. White stripes painted on the roadway would help bring attention. IDEALLY, traffic exiting and entering should never cross paths and would have a dedicated lane. I believe a stop sign and painted stripes would at least help cloverleaf driver know that they are supposed to merge and yield to highway traffic. It is also a much cheaper fix than a true redesign of this interchange.
