directions of traffic before turning left and traveling southbound on East Marginal Way S. <br />Currently, the westbound intersection approach operates at level of service (LOS) B during both <br />the AM and PM peak hours. Changing the bridge to northbound -only travel would significantly <br />increase the number of westbound left -turning vehicles at the S 115th Street/East Marginal Way <br />S intersection. This would result in increased delays and queuing, and the intersection worsening <br />to LOS F during both the AM and PM peak hours. In addition, westbound drivers at the S 115th <br />Street/East Marginal Way S intersection have limited sight distance to the south, making it more <br />difficult to turn left onto southbound East Marginal Way S. <br />Recommendation <br />We continue to recommend that the 42nd Ave. S bridge operate in the southbound -only <br />direction for the next 20 months until a temporary bridge is built. In comparison to exiting the <br />neighborhood at the unsignalized S 115th Street/East Marginal Way S intersection, using the <br />traffic signal at the 42nd Ave. S/Interurban Ave. S intersection is safer and more efficient. <br />2 of 2 <br />18 <br />
