We've been doing studies since 1995 and it still doesn't meet the criteria. It's not in the tool box as an option.
When drivers are trying to keep track of who goes next, they're not looking for pedestrians.
We do not turn signals off and on.
At 65 mph, that closing speed between vehicles is pretty significant.
It would be unacceptable to leave it there if it didn't work. We would come down and take it out or modify it.
It wasn't just speed limits. They saw a lot of driver behaviors that were extraordinary. People making aggressive moves. People, because of the congestion and delays, taking some risks.
It's more expensive than a signal, but again, I think it's safer. It lowers speeds and it's more efficient.
It's not illegal to drive round and round, but it gets pretty boring after two or three times.
The intersection meets the criteria for a crash location. So it will be funded entirely with federal and NDOT funds.
