On the next page in the report, it shows a truck loon. Which is basically a bulge out in the oncoming lane where the u-turn movement is so trucks can make the turn. It just seems like a terrible idea IMO.

They do say this configuration requires further design and the u-turn is probably pushed down the highway to minimize the weaving impacts.
I agree - the u-turn idea is so bush league.
