No Left Turns on State Street?

The new traffic flows on State St will change the way you turn.

According to the Idaho Statesman, upgrades are coming to the State St and Veterans Memorial Parkway / 36th Street intersection.

If you've ever tried to make a left from State St on to either of those streets, you know, its such a pain. It takes forever!!

That could be changing soon. The Ada County Highway district says that area will soon be transformed into a "thU turn", also known as a "median U-turn", or "Michigan Left".

The concept-according to the Idaho Statesman:

Drivers along State will continue through the intersection, make a U-turn down the block, then head back toward the intersection and and make what becomes instead a right turn.

Left-turning traffic will remain unchanged in the north/south lanes.
