Dealing with traffic on Gatlin Blvd in Tradition

The traffic has been horrendous on Gatlan Blvd in Tradition especially going south. Sometimes I go to Crosstown. Yesterday, I hoped on I95 and drove down to Becker. I’ve never seen traffic as bad as yesterday. It was a Sunday.

Woke up this morning to this article by WPBF. It’s a good read.

Port St. Lucie mayor talks work being done to address traffic problems amid growing population

Some people think the lights are not timed well.

The work at I-95 and Gatlin Boulevard will be done this fall. Improvements in the project include widening southbound I-95 to provide a 12-foot lane and shoulder, and the off-ramp for additional right-turn and left-turn lanes.

Crews are also widening the inside of the I-95 northbound Gatlin Boulevard off-ramp to make three left-turn lanes, and eastbound and westbound Gatlin Boulevard to make three 15-foot left-turn lanes.

What your take on this? What do you think can be done?
