Post Subject: Re: Medians Read Article

Some folks have shorter memories than others. Does anyone remember when they took the grass and concrete medians out of the SW Loop because they were too dangerous and caused too many wrecks? They put in the center turn lanes when they took them out. Now you have poorly designed concrete medians with not enough or not long enough left turns, left turns and u-turns only at intersections, and more vehicles in residential neighborhoods than the streets were designed for. I'm a firm believer in the person who designed the medians should have to drive in Tyler for a few weeks to see how bad they messed up the design and planning. And I laugh when I think about the TXDOT media guy saying you wouldn't have to worry about the vehicle in front of you stopping in the traffic lane anymore.
