New Proposal for the 5-Way Intersection at Shamrock/Eastway
Received an email with a link to the proposal for the intersection improvements. They seem to be looking for input earnestly, and working with the rec center to get more local reach. But on the face of it I don’t love this plan. It looks like 2 main traffic directions will be forced to loop around through lights the opposite way. Im also unsure what they are planning to buy and what will happen to the land around that area.
The intersection could certainly use improvements but….. this just seems nonsensical (I’m no engineer and would LOVE to hear everyone’s thoughts, esp if this will actually end up being good somehow?). It also seems like this design phase is complete and they are ready to go so if anything is going to change we have to let them know ASAP.
