That intersection is long overdue for an overpass. In the meantime lower the speed limit to 55.

I use 87 every day in which time I see many drivers using poor judgement.They run stop signs or pull out in front of on coming traffic. Just put some law enforcement there and keep writing tickets.An over pass will just create drivers that do not know how to properly merge into traffic and besides who wants to contend with 3-4 years of sub quality road construction. WRITE MORE TICKETS
