In the given example, turns were already permitted prior to the additional

The links do improve turn-by-turn instructions, in the case of following a large vehicle and not being sure where to leave the main lane of traffic to make a left turn. But it's also possible that adding turn lanes and/or change:lanes could work (but I'm not familiar with change:lanes enough to know for sure).

I think some areas are more likely to add a physical divider based on history of traffic flow and available funds.
