Why is the right lane of north bound 141 closed as you approach the Olive exit?

Now that the Best Buy in Ellisville is closed, why is the traffic signal there still operational? It is only serving a car dealer and a tile shop. Do we really need a signal there???

Why does the north side of the McKnight at Delmar intersection still have temporary lane markers 2 years after the Delmar/I-170 bridge was completed?

The painted stop line for where cars should stop on northbound Price Road at Olive is not in a good location. The line for the left turn only lane should be set further back, as is common at many intersections.

The current stop line makes the heavily used left turn from westbound Olive onto southbound Price dangerous. This is because Price jogs slightly to the west at that point, making the turn from Olive onto Price more acute. Traffic would flow more smoothly if the left turn lane on Price were set back.

If you have any doubts about this, take a look at the intersection at a time when there isn't any traffic waiting to make the left off of Price. You'll see that cars turning off of Olive onto Price make the turn in a "normal" way and invariably cut across the northbound left turn lane.

This is simple to fix and would make traffic flow more smoothly.

There is a parcel of land on the east side of Hwy 141, between 141 and Parkway South Middle South School's property (just south of Dutch Mill). It has no tax ID number. Who owns this parcel of land? Is it a MODOT Right of Way? Or, has it been given to the Parkway School District? I have emailed MODOT concerning this ownership, but have not received an answer.

I want to thank MODOT for adjusting the traffic signals on Page to accommodate the additional traffic since the I-70 bridge construction project began. It is so much better now in the morning going east than it was prior to the start of the project.

Will you keep these settings after the I-70 bridge construction is completed?

I would hate to revert back to the nightmare that existed before. These adjustments should have been made a long time ago. There was no flow: traffic eastbound on Page would get caught at a minimum of 5-6 lights going east between I-270 and I-170 as they weren't timed to keep the traffic flowing, starting with the light at Schuetz.

Thanks!

Can the surface of westbound Manchester Rd. over 270 be milled to eliminate the washboard surface that has been there since it was constructed. It appeared there was crack sealant added after construction that led to this roughness. Other highway pavement has been milled resulting in a smoother surface.

Why does MODOT not maintain the grass cutting and maintenance in the MODOT right of way areas in O'Fallon, MO? The City of O'Fallon Mayor, Bill Hennessy says that it is MODOT's responsibility but the residents of O'Fallon are told by a majority of the city council to maintain these areas of MODOT's responsibity, subjecting themselves to dangerous traffic situations. What's the answer to your inability to maintain these areas, especially on HIghway K in O'Fallon, MO?

What's the best place for people to stand if they want to watch the detonation of the Blanchette Bridge on Sunday?

My question is: If I'm driving on a 4 lane road, 2 in each direction and a yellow school bus stops and extends it's "stop" sign, which drivers are responsible for obeying the stop sign?

When will the road project at Wellington Avenue and Wabash be completed?

Are there any plans to make the left turn lane onto Hilltop from eastbound Olive a left turn yield to oncoming traffic? Currently, when the eastbound Olive light is green, you sit in the left turn lane unable to turn until a left turn arrow comes on. Why not a flashing yellow arrow or a left turn yield to oncoming traffic when the light is green?

On highway 30 many of the interchanges are being redone. Which ones are still going to be updated? Any between 270 and northwest ?

This is a two part question: 1. Why are large 18 wheelers and commercial trucks allowed to use Blackforest as a major thoroughfare? Kids play along this road and it's dangerous. 2. Since this is the case the road looks terrible. When will it get repaired?

Who would be in control of turning lanes into shopping centers? I have witnessed very close calls with other drivers at 141 left turn lane leading into the big Costco parking lot. Its a 2 lane left turn off of 141 down to one lane. The sign to "one lane" is set at that point not before. I have had a upset man follow me into the parking lot because of this issue. I was in the left turning lane. He was in the left side of that turning lane. Can the sign be moved back closer to 141? Can the lane paint be redone? Thank you for this service.

thanks for the interesting questions today. I'm signing off for the day. Perhaps Patch will host this discussion again.

The red light located on Jeffco in front of Rockport school in Arnold, flashes yellow most of the day everyday. At certain times of the school day, it just turns red! That is when people slam on their brakes or cruise right through it. Wouldn't it make more sense and be safer for it to flash green all day, then turn yellow for the appropriate amount of time before changing to red?

he traffic signal located on Jeffco and Tenbrook Rd. across from Fox Campus in Arnold has had many accidents west bound from Tenbrook or eastbound from campus resulting from left hand turns. There are left turn arrows for north and south bound lanes on Jeffco. It seems it would be much safer to install left turn signals for the lights directing traffic east and westbound. This problem has remained unaddressed for many years, what can be done to alleviate it?

I have had a concern; The west bound lanes on hwy 370, aproaching the 370 bridge over the Missouri River, between Earth City Expressway and the Bridge, need to be restriped. The existing striping is faded and the existing striping that was removed, by scraping/grinding it off, still appears like its a lane marking, with the sun in the evening, shining on it, like its a current lane marking line, very confusing seeing whats what, especially at evening rush hour, with the sun at a lower angle shining accross it from the west. I think it needs to be restriped, or have more contrast/color against the light color of the concrete pavement there. I know it has been restriped several times in the past for different projects/reasons, but I think someone from MoDot, should drive it several times during rush hours/ sun setting times, to see what I mean. Also some of those pavement mounted, lane marking, reflectors, would really help folks see those lanes at night, and at night in the rain too. This would make it a lot safer for everyone, like my self, that use this hwy daily. Thanks for your concideration on this matter, Tim Griffith.

Would MoDOT PLEASE considfer adding a larger shoulder or sidewalk from the entrance of the Marisol subdivision (located on W) to the intersection of W and 109. It would be less than a 1/2 mile stretch. My concern is for the residents of Marisol who jog or ride a bike from the subdivison into the town of Eureka where they are able to access a trail. W is such a dangerous road to begin with, plus it would be nice to not have to jump into weeds every time a car drove past. Any information or suggestion on how we can make this happen would be appreciated! Thank you for your consideration.
