That one really,
really grinds my gears. I used that slip lane quite frequently and curse Austin out loud every time I find myself on Nantucket and forget yet again that it's gone. If I remember in time, I'll actually cut into the Dartmouth Shopping Center lot (or even the McDonald's lot, which is connected to it) and make my way to Wyse from there.
A real piss-off.
The Hawthorne-Prince Albert intersection was, as you know, equally bastardized. To make it even worse, one night recently left-turn arrows were painted on Hawthorne, both north and southbound, leaving the impression to the uninitiated that
only left turns could be made - that traveling straight across PAR or turning right onto it were suddenly prohibited. Absolutely mind-boggling. I noticed this morning that the offending arrows have now been ground off the pavement (not simply painted over). I'm sure the whole episode was unintentional - just someone's boneheaded error, but it just seemed typical of what's happening on our roads lately.
