Lanes headed for westbound Erb and lanes coming from eastbound Bridgeport cross over, with a traffic light. Easy. The trickiest bit might be managing the flow of traffic on/off of the southbound expressway — I’m not sure of the exact geometry, but it seems to me those ramps are pretty close to the place where the roads split, so you might not want to allow all movements because they would have to cross too many lanes of traffic. So maybe, for example, the on-ramp would come from Erb eastbound only, not Bridgeport.
