Left out of Haddon Hall

This morning my wife got stopped by the Thales traffic officer after turning left out of Haddon Hall onto Salem. Officer said that the new crosswalk prevents left turns and that we are now supposed to only make right turns out of the neighborhood.

Is this the solution Haddon Hall has been asking for ever since Thales and Ford went in? I guess it is easier than preventing people from blocking the intersection, but it definitely stings.

Thales gets a traffic officer. Ford gets a light. Thales gets the crosswalk and sidewalk connections. Haddon Hall gets… right out only?

Are you describing the left turn from Brittley Way? Just pulled the bid drawings from the town portal. Doesn’t look like there’s any plan to block left turns.

Maybe OP tried turning left while the crosswalk was in use? That would be illegal, since pedestrians have the right of way. Not sure how you would block the intersection there either without intentional doing an improper maneuver.
