From what I have heard, the road diet concept was analyzed and Beaver Street seemed to function ok.  But some errors and omissions were found and when re-analyzed there were major traffic deficiencies (failing automobile level of service) at many of the intersections.  FDOT was not willing to accept those conditions, so the road diet idea was dropped.

My concern are the turn radius widths at the intersections.  Please tell me they are not proposing what they did at Forrest and Park which is the most hideous intersection in an urban setting I have ever seen.
