Intersection, 11 St and 64 Ave SE New sign needed ?Stay in the right lane? This intersection is a disaster not only does it need a traffic light there are other issues that need to be addressed. The increased volume of traffic in this area over the last few years with limited signage is causing these issues. When traveling south bound on 11 street SE once you hit 64 Ave it goes from one lane to two lanes, but the lines on the ground don?t match up. Since there is no sign on 11 street saying ?stay in the right lane? this is confusing. Many people believe the law states you cannot change lanes in the middle of an intersection but since the lines don?t aligned it?s a grey area. So the issue is when you are turning from 64 Ave left into the closets lane on 11 St SE and there is an accident because someone on 11 street also goes into the left lane and not the right lane at the same time who is at fault????? In discussion with a Rader Policeman in regards to which lane is the 11 street drivers lane they said as far as who?s fault it would be is a ?grey area?. Therefore to correct this ?grey area? can we please get a sign on 11 street heading south so this issue and ?grey area? can be corrected.

Issue: Permanent Sign (Add or Modify)
