In the Very Least, it appears quite obvious that the Left Turn Lane in front of Fresh Market will require lengthening, if not doubled … AND a Traffic Signal definitely will need to be installed.
Been wondering how the intersection in front of Fresh market will be reconfigured to handle the traffic flow. Although a traffic signal seems logical, will it cause traffic to backup onto 466? There is not a lot of room between that intersection and 466. The light cycle for traffic using Wedgewood would have to be very short to prevent the backup. Will be interesting to see how that works, perhaps a roundabout, but very doubtful as no work has started and time is short before the scheduled opening.
