Northfield / 85 Exchange upgrades?
#70
If a 'u-turn allowed' sign does get posted at the Colby or Parkside intersections: Question becomes how many Driver A (people making a right on the red from those side streets, into their assigned lane) would anticipate a car (Driver B) doing a 180 u-turn to go that same direction of traffic? 

Ideally, Driver A stops, looks for pedestrians crossing, oncoming traffic to their left and proceed cautiously on their right turn while keeping to their assigned lane.  

Meanwhile Driver B w/ the advance green attempts their 180 degree turning radius to 2 lanes.  NOT LIKELY drivers can do a 180 turn keeping to two lanes.

Just don't see this as either safer or convenient?
