- The reverse lanes are the center 'dotted' lanes known to some locals as "suicide lanes" that turn into traffic lanes during rush hour.
The city needs to make turnouts for the bus stops. Nothing more annoying than a bus stopped twenty feet past the intersection with no one entering or exiting the bus, while the lane gets backed up. 🙄
I work on 7th St. between McDowell and Thomas so I experience this daily. Delete these reverse lanes and take away lanes to slow down traffic, create someplace safe to walk, and create a space that is economically viable for all the great restaurants and shops popping up. The existing stroad has too many driveways and side streets entering and exiting to make a high rate of speed safe. It’s a death wish pulling in and out of my building every day and will only get worse as more and more housing goes in.
No, what they need to do is what Tucson did to Speedway Blvd and have SIGNAL LIGHTS for reverse lanes! How stupid is Phoenix for not doing this in the first place.
The idiots that run this city have always been dumb.
Unbelievable
I avoid the area entirely.
While the reverse traffic lanes can be confusing at first if you've never used them, they serve an important purpose. They add additional capacity during the morning and evening rush hour commutes. It's not difficult to learn what times to use the 7th St. and 7th Ave. reversible lanes. Just look at the signs. If you think traffic is bad now, removing those lanes would increase commute times by forty percent and would increase accidents. I hope the city keeps those lanes.
Keep trying they've been there for years they'll never get rid of them
it's only confusing if you're incapable of paying attention.
Theresa knows. She sees the flaws, forget that the road has been like that for 40 years. They can't have a community anymore. Did you not hear the random guy in a truck saying he was confused? I think they have made their point.
Which most people are incapable of paying attention so.......
Exactly, we don't take driving seriously here.
Your average person on the street in 2024 is significantly less intelligent than the average person in 1984. Thank diversity for that.
Dearborn, MI had a reverse lane down Michigan Ave (Dearborn's main street). It got so bad, the locals stopped using it and left the out of towner deal with it.
Dearborn also has a high non-English speaking population.
Good.
Yeah, that is annoying
Like we're supposed to know traffic time on top our work schedule
It is pretty difficult to look at the clock and see the time. People that move here from elsewhere are last in line for ideas that change the status quo
it literally tells you the times on 200 different traffic signs down that road
