Disadvantages
One-way street systems often result in an increase in the trip length due to extra turns must be made before reaching the destination. Another major impact is to transit routing. Bus routes must split onto two separate streets, adding to confusion and walking distances. Business owners often object to building one-way streets too, fearing a decline in the business due to changing circulation patterns, though most studies show one way streets in commercial area result in an enhanced economic activity.
