Road Markings/Striping - New

2429 W Ben White Blvd Svrd EB, Austin

CLOSED #25-00388121

Field Inspection Conducted - Close SR. While adding a solid white line at this location may seem like a reasonable solution, it is unlikely that drivers would consistently comply without a physical barrier to restrict these movements. Because this location falls under the Texas Department of Transportation's (TxDOT's) jurisdiction, I will defer to their authority. Any requests for new or modified pavement markings must be reviewed and addressed by TxDOT. You may contact Orlando Gallegos at Orlando.gallegos@txdot.gov to share your concerns.

Description
There is a need for a continuous (non-dashed) long white paint stripe on the curved right-turn lane that connects northbound South Lamar to eastbound W Ben White Blvd Frontage Rd. There are drivers switching to the leftmost lane of eastbound Ben White and drivers switching to the lanes near the right. The traffic pattern creates a simultaneous trajectory in which drivers of the outer lanes switch into the empty middle lane at the exact same time traveling at the same speed.
