Glenwood Springs Post Independent: New “red right-turn arrow” traffic signal causing driver confusion

Dec. 26, 2009 | 9:53 am No comments

The Glenwood Springs Post-Independent reports that the new configuration of the Glenwood Springs 116 interchange seems to be moving traffic along more efficiently, but that some motorists are having a hard time adjusting to some of the newly placed traffic signals.

More specifically, the one traffic signal just after the right-hand turn from Sixth Street onto the Grand Avenue Bridge. The past configuration had a single traffic turn lane where motorists did not have to stop before turning onto the bridge.

However, the new configuration includes a red-arrow traffic light that requires traffic to stop at the turn. It’s that one aspect that is confusing some motorists, and has caused a few accidents.
