I think it was a really bad idea to illuminate it like that. They might want to consider stopping the color changes so often. Maybe just once every 30 or 40 seconds, so drivers aren't focused on the pretty lights.

Given the insane number of wrecks on I-17 and the limited access for emergency vehicles with no center shoulder, I agree that any more distractions on I-17 are a hazard.
I don't know what we're gonna do about that freeway long term. It's really not feasible to widen it at this point but it sure is dangerous and also a really important arterial.
