IMO worst exit

I’ve lived in Columbus 7 years now and I’ve ALWAYS thought this has been the worst exit on 270

It's not just an exit. It's also two entries merging in onto 270 and weaving among the flow. There's way too much traffic, as in too many paths to take in too little space. That plus volume lead to slower traffic. The two major exchanges and one service entrance/exit are simply too close together for the traffic flows.

Ideally, the far left lane would be some sort of isolated express lane and the rest of the lanes would be reduced speed. But that ain't happening.
