Barraza Ct Intersection

The existing intersection at Barraza Ct. has several issues.

1. A northbound golf cart intending to cross the intersection must stop to wait for a break in northbound vehicular traffic. All golf cart traffic behind the stopped one must also stop.

2. Northbound motor vehicles intending to turn left onto Barraza must stop and wait for a break in southbound traffic (both vehicular and carts). The painted road striping doesn't provide any obvious way to accommodate this. Traffic behind the turning vehicle often drives around the stopped car(s), veering into the cart lane in the process. If the turning car tries to maneuver into the median area, it blocks the path of southbound golf carts that have illegally crossed into the median, using the median area as a "safe" travel lane.

3. Vehicles turning left out of Barazza Ct. must wait until there is simultaneously a break in several traffic flows: 

   1. Southbound golf carts

   2. Southbound vehicular traffic

   3. Northbound vehicular traffic

Proposed re-striping the intersection to achieve improved safety and efficiency.

Here is what's new:

1. Exit spur for northbound carts turning left onto Barraza

2. Left turn lane for all northbound traffic (vehicles and carts) turning left on Barraza

3. Merge lane for traffic turning left from Barraza onto Morse
