Description
Is it possible to get a left turn arrow for traffic heading South on Haines rd to 54 av East? Traffic backs up and people try and pass on the right to keep going south on Hands rd. Being that there is an entrance to I-275 there is a large volume of traffic that turns left from Haines rd to 54 ave.

UPDATE: Public Works - Traffic Engineering responded - The last time we studied this intersection was in 2010. At that time the amount of crashes did not qualify for a left-turn arrow; and the signal failures (where a motorist must wait through a cycle before they can turn) were negligible – so southbound left-turns didn’t qualify for a signal.
If they would like to call Phone (727) 464-8958 and provide their contact information, we can study this again.
