Why would Erb have its lights synchronized eastbound as a two-way street?
And what makes you think (maybe some data? maybe?) that traffic on Erb West are "going mostly to Weber or the highway"? I wouldn't assume that. I would assume that some are going to Uptown or taking King to some other destination, some are going to destinations on or near Bridgeport/Erb, and some are taking Weber. A poster pointed out earlier that, sufficiently far west on Erb, and it makes much more sense to head south on Fischer-Hallman to the Expressway, rather than cutting through the heart of Waterloo (which we don't probably want cars to be doing).
