Chris,
Can you folks look at the layout of the intersection of Sandy Lake and
Denton Tap and make a recommendation on the below complaint?
Thanks.

Hi Ken, I realize that the road construction is new and may not be
totally complete yet; however, I wanted to voice a concern that the new
two left turn lanes (coming from the West) turning onto Denton Tap can
possibly present a danger of car collisions with drivers making a left
turn (coming from the East) because the turns are made at the same time.
Many drivers have also been hesitant in making the turns because
visually, it doesn't appear safe.
Please advise if you require further details on this observation.
Best regards,
Jo Ann
