Description

There is virtually no right-turning traffic on Grove St westbound at Orange. The majority of traffic goes straight through, with some left turns. The right lane approaching this intersection in the westbound direction should allow straight traffic as well as right-turning.

On the other side of the intersection there are two lanes on Grove St heading west. Therefore it would make sense to have two through lanes approaching the intersection as well. During peak periods, traffic in the left lane backs up to and across State Street, while the right lane often has no vehicles in it, except the ones that ignore the markings and go straight through anyway, creating an unsafe situation. The markings should be changed to allow through traffic from both approach lanes.
