Room for improvement in new lane striping on Square? By Ralph Roy Waggener The boys from Somerset need to come back and get the turn lanes a little more even. It's hard to stay inside the lane going around the square even in my little car. Monday when I was coming from the Post Office a person in the Jamestown turn lane just shot in front of me going around the square; the car turned to go to LWC, so strangers don't know what to do at this juncture even with the lines. Maybe more signage on the pavement telling drivers early on how it works could help? Thanks - Ralph Roy Waggener 2013-06-04 11:38:38 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Commentary
