Road Design Considerations
• Patrick/Gading classified as a minor arterial
• Road designed for through movements, including
double left turns from Tennyson and Harder
• Land use is not consistent with minor arterial
classification
• Removing double lefts allows for a different road design • Harder to Gading – can be accommodated with signal
timing changes
• Tennyson to Patrick – up to 1/3 of vehicles may seek
alternate route
