A proposal to ban right turns on red lights has been scaled back. The original plan would have banned right turns at most red lights, but it has been drastically reduced. Metro Council members and transportation advocates are pushing for the change to improve pedestrian safety.
The Metro Traffic and Parking Commission approved the updated plan, which will now be considered by the Metro Council.
