Drivers making illegal U-turns at Greensboro Urban Loop

The final section of the Greensboro Urban Loop is set to open Monday.

GREENSBORO, N.C. — There's a good chance you've heard, the new ramp onto the Greensboro Urban Loop, is already open, but with all good things, there's often some confusion.

Some drivers are missing the new ramp on the right side of North Elm, causing them to make U-turns, to head westbound on the old ramp. 

The problem is, there's no left turn lane to take the old ramp. There are signs up about the westbound ramp. So, keep your eyes peeled.

It's been a long time coming. 

The North Carolina Department of Transportation chose to break the loop of freeway circling Greensboro into four sections. NC DOT said this stretch will come with a change in traffic flow. 

The final section of the loop is expected to be fully open Monday, Jan. 23.
