Is it my imagination, or have the lines in the road for the two right-turn lanes from TW Alexender onto Glewnood recently been modified to feed into the rightmost lanes on Glenwood rather than the leftmost?
Over the last week I would have sworn I've seen it go from what looked like a new set of partially overlapping lines, to just new ones. But my attention is obviously elsewhere
Drivers are pretty inconsistent in how they have merged from the outter right turn lane onto glenwood, making the inner turn lane a bit risky. I guess this helps, transition aside.
Sounds like the garbage intersection where Wake Forest Road meets 440. Even after DOT modified the intersection, it was still messed up causing some drivers to immediately shift over after exiting 440.
Some intersections are just overloaded and not fixable.

That intersection is eventually going to be retrofitted to be a diverging diamond interchange sometime in the near future.

I'd argue people need to learn to follow the turning lines through the intersection and stay in their lane. There are 3 left turn lanes coming off of 440 that feed into 3 "straight" lanes on Wake Forest Road. If people would "stay their lane" it wouldn't be a problem.

You are correct. It threw me off the first time I saw it last week, after picking up my kids from daycare out that way. I'm always in the left (right turn) lane anyway, since I'm heading straight through on Glenwood past Brier Creek and 540. I just went ahead to the far left straight lane, like I always have in the past. That way I avoid any potential confused drivers to the right of me.
