For those that have suggested that there should be some improvements in the
crossing of John Nolen Dr at North Shore, here's a little news tidbit:

City to test lane reduction plan on John Nolen Drive
http://madisonsouth.channel3000.com/news/transportation/69036-city-test-lane-reduction-plan-john-nolen-drive

However, I don't see how this will help the principal problem there: The
need to wait for two lights to cross from the path along North Shore Dr to
the John Nolen Path - one to cross the right turn lane, and another to
cross John Nolen itself. Of course, many people don't wait anyway, because
that is a really annoying way to navigate an intersection. Besides, there
isn't nearly enough space to wait on the little island there.

Maybe the article misrepresented what is going to happen. From a satellite
view, that third lane extends quite a way onto the causeway. Maybe
eliminating the third lane onto the causeway would also allow the total
elimination of the flying right-turn from North Shore Dr to John Nolen?
