The biggest change to the Dickerson Road intersection is the fact that it will become a three-legged intersection, instead of four, with the relocation of the southbound I-75 off-ramp. This allows for reducing the number of signal phases which improves the overall traffic flow of the intersection.
An additional right-turn lane is being added from eastbound M-32 to southbound Dickerson Road and continuing to the southbound I-75 on-ramp, which will reduce travel time for right-turn traffic and increase the efficiency for through-traffic on M-32.
Vehicles traveling north on Dickerson Road will see improvements to right turns onto M-32. In addition to shifting the southbound I-75 on-ramp to the east, away from Dickerson Road, the curb radius will be enhanced to accommodate large vehicles so they don't need to cross multiple lanes of M-32 to make the sharp turn and avoid running over the curb.
These measures collectively contribute to improving traffic flow through the Dickerson Road intersection.
