Confused About the 11th St SE Entrance to Westbound SW/SE Freeway?  These Photos Will Help

By Larry Janezich

The photos above illustrate the access to the on ramp to the westbound SW/SE Freeway.  The 395 sign in the upper right is right in front of Gingko Gardens.  The ramp provides smooth access onto the freeway and is much safer than the ramp at 3^rd Street.  It is also currently much underused, possibly because as of yet the signage is inadequate.
