Updated intersection between Algonquin trail, Harvard st, and pond st in Ashland

42.24817, -71.43014

Construction has now been completed at the intersection of Algonquin trail, Harvard st, and Pond st. If you look at the satellite view, you’ll see that the end Algonquin Trail has been shifted north to now align with harvard st on the other side of Pond st. A traffic light has also been in stalled. At the intersection, the intersection has been widened to give a left turn lane at each approach from both directions of pond st.

These updates are beyond my editing capabilities and will need to be done with someone with a higher level

Hi! Thank you for your report. I’ve adjusted the alignment of the roads at the intersection using the available satellite view and GPS points. My edits should go live in 2-3 days. Can you confirm that my edits are as you requested? Thanks!

Looks good for curving the road and aligning it to the other one.

So i think the only thing that is missing is the approach to the intersection from Pond st. It needs to be expanded to 2 lanes there and have a left turn lane put in.

Hi,

Different editor here. I’ve added LG for Pond St north at the intersection. Since you know the area, can you tell us if one is allowed to turn into the Speedway going south on Pond? I didn’t see any signs prohibiting that on our street view photos and wanted to double check.

It always used to be that you could turn into the gas station from either side of the road, and the new left turn lane (heading north on pond into algonquin) starts right about there, so you’re still only cutting across 1 lane of traffic into the gas station.

I see you made the change to pond st north bound, but you’ll also want to edit pond st southbound at the next segment above in the same way to allow for a left turn lane from pond st southbound into harvard st.

Thanks for the update. I had actually added LG for southbound but reread your earlier message and decided that you didn’t specify that so I removed it. I have now just added LG back again for the SB side at the intersection. Changes will be live in 2-3 days.

While i have your attention, just down the street at https://waze.com/en-US/editor?env=usa&lat=42.24171&lon=-71.43117&zoomLevel=20&segments=65795236 Pond street north bound needs a seperate left turn only lane onto elliot st. the other 3 approaches to that intersection are all correct,

I’ve added the LG to Eliot St. These changes should go live in 2-3 days. Thanks!
