Does the Target Shopping Center drive anyone else up the wall. The traffic is rediculous. Once you get in, getting out is a nightmare. That whole intersection in front of zaxby's is a mad house. Why don't the Target parking lot and the Sam's parking lot combine. Everytime I go in there I want to scream! And I LOVE Target!

You do realize there are other ways to leave that parking lot don't you? You can go out the back exit behind Target, which, depending on which direction you take, can take you back out to either the mall area or Cox Creek. If you turn right from there you can take the side roard that goes to Kohl's or back out to 72 by Logan's. I hardly ever go out the front way simply because not everyone stops at those stop signs. I wish SAMs had a back entrance into their parking lot. That would solve alot of problems.

It is a mess because an architect (not a civil engineer) designed the parking lot. They weren't concerned with traffic control. They were concerned with maximum parking places and it looking pretty. Whomever commissioned them to design the Target center had no reason to take the other shopping center (Sam's / Goody's) into consideration. That was not his job. Most commercial properties are developed that way. How many times have you parked at a business and the parking lot did not have a curb cut to the business next door? As to the stop signs, that seems to be a Target trademark. Come visit the one in Madison, it is laid our with odd stop signs and turn lanes, too. Don't gripe too much or the city will put a stop light there!


LOL, I thought there already WAS a traffic light there, just very hard to access... must be thinking about a different part of Cox Creek Shopping ...

You need to do your research on that!!! Oh and go ahead and keep Walmart in business I'm sure you shop there since you don't go to Target and if you'll notice there are alot more welfare shopers at Walmart than Target. It sure is alot more peaceful to shop at Target.


JWall... you are SO correct!!!! We have to let Walmart KNOW how we feel, and the ONLY way to do that is stay away... Walmart has done this country such a disservice for so long now, hope people can see that the store that was once Sam Walton's AMERICAN MADE ONLY store, is now a store that sells almost everything EXCEPT American made stuff.
I personally think Wal-mart is the spawn of Satan!!! Big Grin No, really Walmart is a corporate bully and I hate the way that they treat their longtime employees. I have known friends that have worked there for years and now all the sudden the benefits and guaranteed hours are all cut to save the corporation another 25 cents. Not only did they play a major role in the demise of TeeJays, think about all the grocery stores both big and small that just can't compete. I don't darken their doors unless I just have too. If that is the only place I can get it and I absolutely have to have it I will go and witch about it the entire time. Sam Walton is rolling over in his grave at his legacy. I don't think today's Walmart was ever his intention.
Florence really screwed up by not putting an access road the entire length of Cox Creek Parkway from Florence Blvd. to at least Helton drive. There are pieces of one, but nothing that goes straight through. This would have allowed free flow of traffic on Cox Creek pkwy. I guess this would have made too much sense
