The Power of Positive Thinking on the I-405
From the Westwood-Century City Patch:
Good news about traffic on Sunset Boulevard near the 405 Freeway! (Yes, you read that right — there’s good news about traffic on the Westside.) Starting tomorrow, LADOT will begin changing the signaling and striping at one of the more congested intersections in the area, allowing drivers exiting the 405 Freeway more time to make a right on red from southbound Church Lane to westbound Sunset. Currently, there is a “No Right Turn on Red” sign at the intersection, significantly contributing to the maddening traffic bottleneck we all endure. This small change is expected to make a noticeable improvement to traffic flow. The crews will also turn a multiple-use lane on northbound Church into a right-turn only lane, allowing vehicles to more easily exit Brentwood Glen and turn east onto Sunset.The work should be complete in two weeks, and the parts of the work that will require lanes to be repainted will take place only on weekends to minimize the impact on the weekday commute…
Sounds great…
