The single-best improvement to Flower Mound traffic... that didn't involve roadwork itself

The headline is almost true. Without the millions spent to widen FM3040, we would have never gotten to this point in the first place.

But the single-best improvement to Flower Mound traffic has been the recent switch of the Morriss-FM3040 light to two-way traffic on green on each direction. Even after 3040 was finished a couple of months ago, drivers still had to wait and waste time sitting at a light in which only one direction was getting a green. Now the light functions more like just about every other stop light in the world, with two-way greens in both directions.

Too bad they can't do the same thing with FM3040 traffic at FM2499, but the double-left turn lanes here prevent that.
