New / Modified Sign Request
Allston St & Brighton AveRequest for No U-turn sign/rule for Eastbound Brighton Ave at Allston St intersection. There is a left-turn/U-turn lane about 20 meters after the Allston St intersection that allows them to get out of the flow of traffic to wait for a change to go, but cars routinely block eastbound traffic to make a U-turn at the Allston St traffic light instead to save themselves a couple seconds (I do believe their GPS's might tell them to do it so it would have to be a rule change). The light itself is a bit short because there is a left turn arrow for the westbound traffic period with westbound also green, West and East Bound Brighton ave time, an Allston St traffic period, and an all pedestrian period so the eastbound drivers can be significantly affected by having to wait for people making U-turns while the Westbound traffic is already going (since they start during the Westbound Brighton-to-Allston St left turn period) and often the U-turners end up waiting until the orange/red light for Westbound which is also the Eastbound orange/red light, meaning cars behind them do not move for an entire cycle. I also think this may affect the bus lane (57 and 66 routes) because cars stuck for multiple cycles on Eastbound Brighton Ave then end up going in the bus lane to get around the U-turning cars or new cars coming from the Union Sq intersection bypass the other cars that start lining up due to compounding delays.
