[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If they do this, they really should explore: (1) making the light and left turn signal at Virginia Ave much, much longer, including possibly allowing both lanes to make the left turn, and (2) [b]putting in a traffic light at that choke point after the tunnel where cars have to make the left turn.[/b][/quote]

This would create many more problems and pollution in the park. Horrible idea.[/quote]

How would it create more pollution? Having a long line of cars inching up gradually while waiting to make that left turn seems to generate tons of pollution already.[/quote]

It wouldn't help anything.  There's nothing wrong with that intersection except for people new to the road not realizing that it is not a merge.[/quote]

I think if they simply put up some plastic pylons separating the lanes in the same direction it would help a bit.  It would limit the late merge going north and help the people coming off of Beech Drive going south know that they don’t need to worry about the cars coming from Calvert.[/quote]
