It's still open.
I usually pooh pooh "traffic" as being a concern brought up by opposition to a development. Usually people just blindly cry "it'll bring so much more traffic!!". But this for once has some real substance. Looks like they are planning a main full access driveway on Thomas Road in the same location as it currently is located for Duke. This is offset from Edgemont in the way you'll get conflicting/interlocking left turns. Also, you have the reverse center lane... NB traffic in the PM could legally turn into the fast foot lot, but it would constantly hinder the NB center lane as cars wait to make the left turn. People weaving and trying to avoid waiting cars cause crashes constantly. There are a ton of crashes already there, it'll be much worse.
