jjk: I like the street lamps on the new Spoede Bridge. Why are there lights only on one side? It looks off balanced and unfinished. The lights in the City are on both sides.

Dan Galvin and Linda Wilson: The lights on all the I-64 bridges we are building are for the sidewalks. This is pedestrian lighting. We have a sidewalk only on the eastside of the bridge, so that is where the lights are.

Erika: Is there a way to put up those "dividers" like on Brentwood by the Galeria on Forest Parkway where it splits to go 170 North/170 South.

Do you have any plans in place to help keep traffic moving on the parkway in the clayton area??

Dan Galvin and Linda Wilson: I will share you divider idea with our engineers. I don't think they have plans for this at this time. St. Louis County is working on signal timing on Forest Park Parkway.

Tracker: Are you saying that the north bound ramp from Brentwood to 170 won't open until after 12/15/08?

Dan Galvin and Linda Wilson: I assume that you mean the northbound ramp from Eager Road to I-170 since there isn't a northbound ramp from Brentwood. Northbound access from Eager Road will reopen with the west half of the project and the closure of the east half.

John: I know it's a massive job trying to relieve traffic congestion during this project and I must say that it's going better than I expected so far. My question is how do "you" monitor traffic on secondary roads (i.e. Clayton, Page, Hanley, Manchester, etc.) to determine if the timing of traffic signals needs to be adjusted? Also, is there a way for drivers to advise you where they are experiencing the most traffic, so you could take a look at the timing of lights?

Dan Galvin and Linda Wilson: People call our info-line all the time with questions or to report problems. It's 314-524-9191.
