What a mess trying to turn around.

Maybe a traffic light for us would help

I agree with you, Sharon. Being a resident in Sherman Oaks it is impossible to get out on highway 11.

We need a light. Someone is going to get killed. The traffic on Hwy 11 has increased 100% in the 15 years since we moved into Sherman Oaks. Don’t even try and turn left out of the neighborhood.

I agree. Hwy 11 could use an extra lane on each side between Trussville Springs and Deerfoot as well.

We most definitely need a traffic light. We’ve been in Sherman Oaks 18 years and the traffic Is much heavier now!
