• Drivers raise safety concerns about East Lake Road traffic pattern change (baynews9.com) — Drivers in the East Lake area are worried a recent traffic pattern change at East Lake Road and Tarpon Woods Boulevard is creating dangerous high‑speed merges and more crashes. Pinellas County says the new lane setup is meant to ease congestion and is being monitored, but nearby residents want the intersection reverted before seasonal traffic returns and someone is seriously hurt.
