The intersection <strong>of</strong> Navilleton Road and US 150experiences the worst congestion with long queues during both the morning and afternoonpeak period, some approaching 1,200 feet or longer. The entire stop controlled side roadsalong US 150 experience long delays during both the morning and afternoon peak periods.Traffic moving from southbound US 150 to eastbound Paoli Pike in the morning alsoexperiences long delays at the intersection. The reverse movement also experiencesdelays in the afternoon peak period. During the afternoon peak period the intersections <strong>of</strong>Lawrence Banet Road/US 150 and Old Vincennes Road/Duffy Road are very congested.The congestion is caused by the close proximity <strong>of</strong> the intersections and the delay that theeastbound traffic experiences at the intersection <strong>of</strong> Lawrence Banet Road and US 150.Prepared by Strand Associates, Inc. ® 2-7KRH:pll\S:\@SIECO\001--050\046\008\Wrd\<strong>Thoroughfare</strong> <strong>Plan</strong>\Draft 07-19-07\S2-Needs Identification 07-19-07.doc\072007
