Description
Why are there double yellow lines all the way down Plumbrook since the repave. If I'm going towards Utica road I cannot make a left hand turn into any of the neighborhood streets without breaking traffic laws. Why was the middle lane removed ? Why do the lines narrow down coming up to Schoenherr road to only one lane so people turning right going south on Schoenherr have to wait for the light to turn green if someone is going straight. None of the new painting on the lines makes any sense. Is there any city official that can explain what the choices were for this? I know I was not contacted about it and I've lived here on Beecher for 60 years.

Good Morning,
Thank you for the note and question. Vehicles can cross solid yellow lines to make left hand turns. The solid yellow lines communicate passing allowances, if a solid yellow line is on your side of the centerline you cannot cross it to pass.
Plumbrook Road will be striped with bike lanes on the edge of both bounds in the Spring/Summer of this year. We sent out notifications/information on the project to 1,500 homes including Beecher, but the notifications limits stopped at Sorrento. If you live north or Sorrento you wouldn't have received it. However, there is much information on the Cone Zone portion of the City Website.
