[Idaho] Incorrect Lane Arrows - Yellowstone Ave. - Idaho Falls (sec-0017-0009)

#1 Post by supersobes » 20 Dec 2021 02:41

There are some issues with the lane arrows on Yellowstone Avenue in Idaho Falls:
  1. The two arrows in the middle lane before the intersection say that the middle lane goes straight and turns, but the lane only goes straight. These arrows should be changed to straight only arrows.
  2. Another set of arrows should be added in each lane closer to the intersection after the left turn lane opens up.

Because the turn lane has not yet started, traffic going straight and traffic going left use that middle lane. As such, the arrows are correct.

Do you have any examples of that? While the manual does not specifically specify, I can say that I never seen lane arrows done like this anywhere in the United States.

Technically, straight-only lanes don't usually have arrows, and arrows are not placed before the lanes are present.
Here is that intersection in reality:

When arrows are used, they signify every direction thwt traffic immediately above them is able to go, so when a lane splits, both directions are shown.

This right here is my whole point. Since the arrows are not placed before the lane is present, then there should be no turn arrows before the turn lane begins.

And yes, I did reference the real intersection before reporting to make sure it wasn't some weird anomaly.

As for the first part of the first post, the arrows as they are located are correct (the left lane at that point is aboe to go left or straight), though instead of changing these arrows, they should be outright removed.
As for the second point, yes there should be arrows after the turn lane starts. However, the straight-through lane does not need an arrow at all.
