Not the correct solution. Still have most of the traffic eventually going down Colony Blvd. A cheaper and better solution would be to extend the cart path down to the bank, swing it North around behind the bank, staying on the golf course, re-enter the parking lot at the far North end of Sembler Way. Keep the crossing by the Rec center open. You have now drastically reduced the congestion at the old crossing, reduced the traffic on Colony going to the shopping center, cut down on the volume at Colony and Sembler and done it for a lot less than $400K. The only place that gets a traffic increase is the North end of Sembler that currently has very little. It's my money also.
