Issue Has Been Resolved - Close SR. The City evaluated left turn operations at this intersection. As part of this evaluation, we studied intersection characteristics, crash history, while taking safety and mobility factors into consideration. Based on this evaluation, we have protected this left turn only to improve safety and reduce the risk of severe crashes. We will continue to monitor this location's operations and safety performance to determine if additional adjustments are needed in the future.

Description
Again, the intersection at Lamar and Barton Skyway needs a flashing yellow left turn signal when turning left from Lamar onto Barton Skyway. People constantly turn left erratically to cut through the Chevron parking lot. It is much more dangerous than a flashing yellow left turn signal would be.
