Unclear directional/lane flow - Fellsway towards Medford.
also asked...
Q. Please describe the traffic issue (i.e., speeding, traffic lights, etc.)
A. Since the lanes at the intersection at Wellington Circle were updated, each lane does not have a clear direction - cars from multiple lanes are trying to get into the same lane when they cross the intersection. This has happened to me on more than one occasion where my car and another car nearly hit each other because we were trying to get into the same lane. The signage with arrows doesn’t seem to be helping. Also, if people don’t know the lane 2nd from the left is an optional left hand turn, they aren’t expecting you to go straight.
