Left turning arrow on Lawrence to turn onto Cicero heading south
The intersection of Lawrence & Cicero is a very busy one. There needs to be a turning arrow for drivers turning into Cicero heading south because it is often difficult to see oncoming traffic heading east on Lawrence. This is a safety issue.

Left-turn arrows should be eliminated at every intersection.
When the left-turn arrow is active the pedestrian crossing is stopped in all four directions, providing a cars-over-pedestrian advantage.
When it's raining, pedestrians must wait in the rain while drivers sitting inside closed cars can turn faster.
When it's snowing, pedestrians must wait in the snow and cold so drivers sitting in warm cars can turn faster.
When it's hot, pedestrians must wait in the sun so drivers in air-conditioned cars can turn faster.
Very few intersections need a left-turn arrow, especially when it gives cars priority over pedestrians.
