Now EVERYONE is inconvenienced ALL OF THE TIME instead of just a very few travelers in the bewitching hours having to wait all of 10 minutes during their once in a lifetime off chance encounter of being on the same stretch of road at the extremely unlikely same time as a megaload.  <shaking my head>, <frowny face>, <'they just don't get it...they don't>.

Not only will the divider leave less street width within which vehicles may operate down the street, they likely will do so at speeds reduced from those of roadways nearby.  Considering the amount of pedestrian traffic in this location, this is not necessarily an undesirable development.
