I watched the Pothole Killer video. It’s very neat.

One is suggested at Damen & Milwaukee, where it also recommends prohibiting left turns. (They’re already banned for Milwaukee.) That would go some way towards freeing up light-cycle time for another phase — the wait for the scramble can get quite long at a six-leg intersection. The crossing distances (and therefore the times) at Ashland & Milwaukee would be too long to make it worthwhile.

I wonder where, exactly, they’d be most useful downtown. State at Washington and Randolph come to mind.

I haven’t finished reading the WPB SSA plan draft, but does it include a pedestrian shuffle (stopping all motorists, allowing all peds to cross in any direction)?

I think that would be an ideal place to host one, but also downtown would be good, too.
