In contrast to the states promoting zipper merging, Indiana recently redesigned some interchanges to effectively eliminate the single merge point. They added extra lanes so that one "preferred" lane (the one that formerly backed up everyone for three miles) is no longer the sole access for any of the off-ramps. Now, everyone has basically three miles in which to merge into, out of, or across this lane, rather than piling into it all at once. This picture doesn't show the full extent of the redesign, but the yellow highlighted part is the former problem lane. http://www.in.gov/indot/files/MPOICI69_NBInterchange_2012.JP... http://www.in.gov/indot/3071.htm |
