Dallas has finally fixed a problem area that has been a hazard for years. If drivers are familiar with Lemmon and Haskell, they would know that the two streets merge while heading toward Ross Avenue, and right afterward, the four-lane street abruptly becomes a three-lane with no forewarning. The far left lane suddenly disappears into a sidewalk (which intersects with Munger) with only a yellow and black sign to indicate its end.
Now there is a big "turn only" sign, and bright, white lines indicating that it is a turn-only lane. This problem street used to cause accidents and near misses when unfamiliar drivers would brake suddenly or swerve. Having driven on this road numerous times to get home, I know to watch for drivers who are not aware. Now East Dallasites can feel more comfortable while traveling this often busy street.
