Painting a solid rather than a dotted line doesn't do much, in my experience at this crossing. It remains difficult to know for sure whether the vehicle a few lanes over is going to decide to make a late lane change into the on-ramp lane.

I wouldn't hold your breath for any real changes here or the equally problematic off-ramps onto Main West. This part of town is tremendously difficult for people on foot (King and Dundurn and Main and Dundurn are both terribly hostile), so incremental changes aren't likely to entice additional foot traffic, anyway. We need a complete rethink of the way the roads in the west end are designed. A single intersection can be improved marginally, but that won't change the reality that Strathcona is cut off from Kirkendall and both are cut off from Westdale.
