This picture looks like the 1940s or early 50s. Obviously a civilized country as they drive on the right, but the right turn lane cutting through the corner of the sidewalk is a WTF?

Those are common in Arlington. I thought everyone had them.

Looks like they help ease an acute right turn

They're everywhere in Texas, too. It never occurred to me other places might not have them.

Actually they are to make life easier for pedestrians. Traffic turning right has to yield to pedestrians 100% of the time, and the pedestrian is able to get further out into the intersection onto the "island" so they can cross the street more quickly.

When I first moved to SW WA, I was surprised by the unusual traffic pattern design for some freeway exits.
https://www.google.com/maps/place/Va...4d-122.6716063 As you can see, the exit itself ends in a Y. If you want to turn left, you pass oncoming left-turn traffic on the left. Took some getting used to, but it's definitely more efficient. |

Oh, my bad, I thought it was a civilized country.

I think that's the only way to do it with a single traffic light, if there is no room in any direction for a cloverleaf. The problem with these overpasses/underpasses is that they wind up with two sets of lights if everyone needs to exit/enter in every direction
Cities:Skylines is excellent if you want to see how hard it is to actually plan these things out! |
