More flexible poles are on the way to keep people in their proper lanes.
Hi Honk: A recent column addressed the excellent idea of the channelizers on the northbound 241 toll road just before the 91 Freeway. However, when the lanes are moving freely, like in the early mornings, I have seen idiots end up in the wrong lanes and watched them slow to a crawl, creating major danger, then cutting over the dirt median at the north end of the channelizers to the other side.
In 2016, double-white lines were added, but that wasn’t enough. Early last year, those channelizers – poles that bend if hit – were installed for a mile to stop that lane jumping. It sounds like more barriers are needed to keep those not even in the transition lanes at all from going off-road to make the 91 from the 241.
The agency that manages the 241 and some other Orange County toll roads is aware of the problem, said“In coordination with Caltrans, TCA plans to extend the channelizers through this area to help prevent vehicles from crossing over, and we are currently working with Caltrans and the environmental-resource agencies on the schedule of the installation.”
