This is consistent with the results presented in the TIF Nexus Study. A dedicated southbound right-turn lane would be needed to fully mitigate the impact. However, there are right-of-way constraints that limit the physical feasibility of the dedicated southbound right-turn lane. An additional southbound right-turn lane would require an additional 11 feet of right-of-way from existing properties along the west side of Mathilda Avenue.
