18 TENTATIVE TRACT MAP NO PAGE 18 Project Design Feature B-5 (Ci/Co): The final segment of Buddy Holly Drive between Donald O Connor Drive and Universal Studios Boulevard/Universal Center Drive may be widened to accommodate four westbound travel lanes and two eastbound travel lanes. If this segment of Buddy Holly Drive is widened, the US 101 northbound on-ramp at Universal Studios Boulevard/Buddy Holly Drive shall be relocated maintaining the existing 12-foot travel lane, an 8-foot left shoulder, and a 6-foot right shoulder. Entrance to the on-ramp shall be reconfigured from the existing northbound right-turn lane off of Universal Studios Boulevard to a right-turn off the new westbound lanes on Buddy Holly Drive between Donald O Connor Drive and Universal Studios Boulevard/Universal Center Drive. If operated under twoway flow, the westbound approach on Buddy Holly Drive would include two left-turn lanes, one through lane, and two free-flow right-turn lanes. Also, Universal Studios Boulevard would be restriped to provide a northbound right-turn lane, and the eastbound approach would be restriped to provide one left-turn land and one shared through/right-turn lane. The entire improvement described above would not be needed if Buddy Holly remains a one-way eastbound street.
