I like what link said a few posts ago. There is always going to be some traffic when you go home from work unless you get of at night time. Complaining about every single alternative is getting kind of old.

Why are they putting ramp meters on the entrance ramps??????

Calm down. It'll be okay.

I actually used to go down Parker and take a right on Burbank and then turn around by WalkOns. Traffic was basically nonexistent over by WalkOns, and the line on Parker to turn left onto Burbank was always insane.

No left turn at Boyd makes the traffic on Parker exponentially worse.

Oh? What's Parker's ADT percentage increase? Please tell me you have some data to present to the class. I know there's a huge sample size of data available (2 days).

Don't put words in my mouth. I don't give a rat's arse about entrance ramp access on I-10.

You sound exactly like the ignorant people who bitched about that.

Maybe they should make Parker NO RIGHT TURN and let both lanes turn left?????


That's actually pretty brilliant

Personally I'd rather take my chances turning left at a traffic signal (even at Boyd with no arrow) than unprotected at Milford.

Wanna bet that as more people figure out Milford that there will be more accidents in that area? It will just move from Boyd to Milford.

In my defense, I take a left at Milford all the time. it has become even easier with that middle turning lane.

I bet you didn't even consider that the restriping was part of her project when you laughed at this part of the DOTD response

Since the project started, we have already seen an improvement in traffic flow and safety.


At least I think that was you. Apologies in advance if not.

I just thought it was referring to the latest leg of the project, which has made traffic worse. I guess it was referring to the entire project.
