Make Market Alley 1-way
From "A Stronger Lancaster: Submit Your Ideas"
Go to the project
This narrow alley is not wide enough for two cars to pass safely, especially since there is not sidewalk along the entire length. This is unsafe both to walk along due to when cars try to pass they must swerve over into the parking/walking/etc areas so that the other car can pass.
Making this one way for car traffic would make this street much more usable and safe.

I agree. This should be one way going South to North. Never understood why this is two ways as the turns out of the parking lots make it difficult when two lanes of traffic are flowing. Seems like it should have been a one way street a long time ago.

Agreed! N. Market St. between W. James & W. Lemon is not wide enough for two-way traffic.
