@TechConnectify can’t wait for a Conextras on zipper merges
@sass Hot take - the only way we're gonna make zipper merges work is if the stop telling people which lane ends.
If a sign just said "Caution: Lane Reduction in Three Miles" we could force people to take turns.
But saying "Left lane ends" means planners will plan, they get over, then they're annoyed at the people who didn't plan, they don't let them in, yadda yadda.
@TechConnectify @sass @TransitBiker Or do like they do in NY and put up signs that say “alternate merge.”
@TechConnectify @sass @TransitBiker Hence the alternate merge. Never saw a problem or heard anyone complain about it.
