Bad signage

The intersection of Odem Medo Road and Southwest Canal Boulevard in Redmond on the northwest corner of the Bi-Mart store is rather interesting. It’s a “T” intersection traffic marked like a “four way.” Large white road arrows direct traffic on the three legs of the intersection to the base of a big tree. You should check it out in the daylight. Redmond traffic planners have not corrected this “Oops!” for months now. It’s a beautiful wide intersection, nice sidewalks, bike lanes, etc. You would think somebody would have questioned this traffic direction plan somewhere along the way before painting. “Oh well, party on, dudes!”

I’m glad our tax dollars are being used for such forward-looking projects as this. Perhaps it should remain the way it is as a monument to the current way in which our country is being managed. All arrows lead to the base of a large tree. Both the intersection and politically, we are heading into a surprise come some cold, rainy, dark winter night. November is coming.
