Description
during busy times especially in the evening it is darn near impossible to turn left onto 164th st due to all the oncoming traffic. there is a stop light but has no green arrow for us to turn left, only a yield to oncoming traffic. an arrow added to the existing light would be very helpful.

King County operates and maintains the City of SeaTac's signal infrastructure.
I have submitted a request for an investigation to the County for review. If approved, they will get a crew to install the new signal and update the timing of the light.
Whether or not the change can be approved will depend on several factors. Namely, the amount of drivers turning during peak hours must warrant the change.
I will keep this thread updated as we go through the review process. Thank you

Update: City staff met with King County officials today and discussed the possibility of a dedicated left-turn movement for those turning left onto 164th from NB Military.
In short, there is no clear 'yes' or 'no' answer I can give at this time. The signal poles, in their existing condition, are crowded and will require crews to get creative installing an additional signal head. King County will be investigating potential solutions over the coming weeks.
Unfortunately, this process takes time, and I apologize for not being able to provide a clear direction; however, I will continue to update this request as investigations continue.
Thank you.
