UDOT is building freeway style interchanges at 5400, 7000, 9000 and 11400
Beginning this spring, so the awkward left turns (CFIs) at 5400 and 7000 will be eliminated

Does the unique left turn lane set-up on Bangerter HWY make sense?

I like it better than the ones where you have to make a Uturn past the intersection then come back to make a right turn.

The one on 123rd south? That is really bizarre.

I think there's one on 54th south and about 40th west or so as well.

Utah has the majority of them. There is an actual world list.

I think Utah's DOT gets kickbacks for trying out new intersection types.

They work great, they're just hard to understand at first.

They aren't just on bangerter either. Utah has several all over.

They are highly confusing the first time you see them.

pretty significant time and fuel savings with reduced pollution.

Eliminates the wait that cars going straight through the intersection would have

They make good sense. Utah's DOT has done some good things.

They can handle quite a bit more traffic. They work great for the cost.
