I avoid that area like a plague. It's horrible for drivers and pedestrians. The stop lights at University/Main will probably go green for about 15 seconds before switching to yellow so cars rush up to beat the lights. During rush hours it's crazy with line ups.
The parking garage makes the situation even worst as they try to force drivers to turn right on Forsyth to exit at theUniversity/Main intersection. Some drivers will cut through the island, which you aren't suppose to do, and turn left on Forsyth. Perhaps they are going to re-do that island.
At one point they put up one of those bendy pole to stop drivers turning left from the parking garage to Forsyth. The next day the pole was ripped out haha.
The poles are also to discourage the use of Forsyth as an illegal truck route - part of the city's tit for tat battle with Mac over Mac's use of residential streets for all their truck traffic.
