Comments for “Tangerine Road Corridor, I-10 to La Canada Drive”
-
Cars often try to squeeze by vehicles (that are waiting at the light to proceed under the I-10 overpass) on the right to take I-10 Westbound. If the vehicle can squeeze past, then the car can make a right on red to the access road and I-10. Hopefully a right hand turn lane for I-10 westbound will be installed and it will be long enough to hold many vehicles, even those that have to wait before crossing the RR tracks... Some vehicles are too close to the RR track when trying to squeeze past other vehicles. The extra lane for turning at the westbound intersection of Cortaro and I-10 appears to address this issue.

Given the lane expansion, can we expect a median to be installed? If so, can east bound traffic have a higher speed limit?
-
There appears to be a high amount of signage along the side of the road -- with so many signs, it's hard to read them all and pay attention to traffic...

When traveling westbound (from a stop) at La Canada and Tangerine towards La Cholla Blvd, the light at La Cholla always seems to turn red as the traffic approaches. What will be done to address the timing of the lights to facilitate better traffic flow? This is just one example along Tangerine, but having to stop at almost every light in either direction makes for poor gas mileage.

You might be surprised to know that quite a few Oro Valley residents use Tangerine to access the I 10 Corridor to commute to work in locations such as Casa Grande Eloy Marana and Chandler. Will this project be staged to prevent excessive commute times?
-
This RR crossing is among the more dangerous as the lane markings are ambiguous. Increased traffic here will need to have a very clearly defined lane structure/markings. How do you plan to accomplish this?

Dips on Tangerine (westbound lane) creates a hazard when turning left from Camino de Manana onto Tangerine.
-
A dip in the road in front of McDonald's causes a visibility issue for traffic attempting to go east on Tangerine from Tangerine Crossing Drive (just east of the restaurant). It is difficult to see traffic traveling east on Tangerine at this spot.

We are very concerned about the increased noise from increased traffic. What will be done to buffer noise in our residential area. 4 lanes will dramatically increase traffic, especially semi trucks cutting from the 1-10 to Oro Valley
