Regarding the editorial “Route 30 study needs to be realistic” (May 12, TribLIVE): I can give a recommendation that will help with a major safety problem on Route 30. And the only cost will be some signs and motorist education.
Do not allow any left turns going on to or off of Route 30 in areas that have already been identified as safety/problem areas. There already are a few such signs along the route.
Yes, it will cause inconvenience to some drivers, but the gains to their safety and traffic flow will more than offset the inconvenience. Additionally, when drivers begin making their turns at controlled intersections, they will see businesses that they otherwise might not see.
