说明
the new exit ramp pattern at the end of the copnnector is a disaster. Traffic backs up every morning to exit the connector and enter the garage, especially when hospital shifts change. On Tuesday at 7AM, it was stopped back to the KofC building and it took me 20 minutes to get to the garage entrance. Having one of the 2 lanes on the exit blocked with traffic cones and the light always red for those exiting the connector here does not work.

I think the traffic flow could be greatly improved with the following changes:
The new signal between College and York on N. Frontage tends to cause gridlock at College and N. Frontage due to cars backed up at the red light. I have an alternative solution, with rationale explained below:
1. Make Rt34W Exit 2 a LEFT-TURN ONLY onto College.
2. Add pylons across N. Frontage at the West side of College that allows cars turning right from College to turn, but does not allow cars blasting straight through Exit 2 to go straight.
3. Add a YIELD TO PEDS IN CROSSWALK sign for the cars turning right on to N. Frontage.
The reason the signal between College and York was installed in the first place was partly intended to smooth out the merge between N. Frontage and Rt34W. But if cars were no longer allowed to simply blast through Exit 2 on the way to York/34W, then the merge at that point would be minimal, since only a few cars turn from College onto N. Frontage. Therefore, the signal would no longer be necessary, avoiding gridlock. It would probably also smooth flow off of Rt34 Exit 3 due to the easier merge. And most importantly, this would eliminate the speeding cars/trucks that use Exit 2 as a shortcut to get to York/34W. The pylons and appropriate signage would make this transition a relatively easy one.
I hope this makes sense - I think it would really work for all sides.
