No left turn planned into complex on Union

When the HealthSouth complex at Austin Bluffs and Union was built, I asked why can’t there be a crossover in the median built for people going north on Union. I was told there was going to be one put in. That has been years ago and there isn’t one yet. While they are doing the construction at Austin Bluffs and Union, why can’t they build the crossover so it would be easier for patients and workers.

When HealthSouth was built there was no plan for a left turn. “Never was,” said principal city traffic engineer David Krauth, citing the problems it would cause on a busy, fast-moving road. He also said that builders were aware that the interchange would be constructed at that intersection.
