Also, there are some potential issues with widening it to 4 lanes, especially if you add a turn lane, such as the cemetery at 34th and Telephone. Also, that would create another light at 34th and the access road, which would eventually turn into another 19th due to all the housing going in on or near 34th (North of Talavera, south of Blue Stem, etc).
I honestly don't think widening 19th would help a lick (it's 4 lanes with a turn lane), and it would create massive issues in the process (rivaled with what's going on with Main St in Norman). Some of the Norman overpasses are wider and those intersections are just as bad.
Are we talking about the same street? Just making sure...
