It certainly looks like carts at one time were set up to go across 466A, or am I misreading this photo?
Thanks.

[Ah, quick update -- I forgot to check "street view", and now see that there is a fence there. But it sure looks like the original plan was for access. Oh well.]
Golf carts are not allowed to be on the pavement of 466A (or 466 or 44) because those roads have sped limits greater than 30mph. To cross a road with a speed limit greater than 30mph requires the crossing to be specially designated for golf carts. There is one such crossing up on 441 but I believe that is for another develop!ent.
