General Road and Highway Discussion

[GtwoK]

I remember seeing some sort road work / concrete pouring going on at the intersection of King East / Tulane (over by Sportsworld) about a month back, and wasnt sure what it was for. Was right in the middle of the road, in the physical median at the intersection. Was just on Tulane the other day, waiting in the line of traffic to turn left onto King, and was thinking to myself about how BAD the line up gets here - the lineup of cars waiting to turn left off of Tulane was literally longer than the entire street itself, backed up almost to the Home Depot entrance on Gateway:



Anyway, by the time that I had moved up to the Wendys / movie theatre entrance, I noticed what the change was - both lanes on Tulane here are no left turn lanes (with the right being one of those rare left-right turn lanes). There was a new sign on of the hydro poles indicating as such, but the street markings still showed it only being a right turn lane. Anyway, apparently, I was the only one who noticed, as the right lane was completely empty, and I was able to drive up to the front and make the next light

I guess the median changes must've been to accommodate a different turn radius?
