Description
Taking a left at the lights on High Street (in front of Framingham State) and turning to go straight onto Edgell Rd. Cars go into the far left lane, which is supposed to be left only traffic heading to routes 9 / 30. Instead they use the "left only" lane to cut off cars in the correct right lane heading straight on Edgell Road. It's getting very dangerous with folks cutting into the traffic to go straight on Edgell! Can someone please pay attention to this problem. Thanks!

I do understand your concern. However, there are already two signs stating the proper lanes to take when a vehicle approaches this intersection. Any further additional signs would not likely be effective. Too many signs tend to have the opposite effect.
This matter has been discussed at several meetings of the Traffic and Roadway Safety Committee. The safety officer for Town stated that he receives quite a lot of complaints in the area. He sends officers there for enforcement. It’s one of the most heavily enforced areas in Town.
I would encourage you to continue to be a cautious driver and follow that correct lane markings as you travel through this intersection.

It is so much better when the police are there observing every one is on their best behavior and there is still always someone pulled over. If you ever had a camera on this intersection you'd be amazed at the nerve of some of these drivers!
