1) Why the NB left turn lane on Charles to WB Gaukel has been closed when only Gaukel between Charles and King is closed?
2) Why hasn't Charles at Gaukel just been set to a four-way stop? So many busses get held up there waiting for the lights to cycle when there really is no need while Gaukel is closed.
For 2, I'm guessing that given the LRT and the volume on Gaukel, they require a signal...even though with the station right there, it would almost certainly be perfectly safe, and better for everyone including the LRT.
For 1...I know the construction needs the lane on Charles closed for a staging area, perhaps they wanted to align the intersection better...but I'm really just speculating here.
