I don't think so. In the cities master plan for the redevelopment of that area they claim that the design is "Refined geometry at intersections to provide more sidewalk space, and slow vehicles down at turns, thereby improving safety for those crossing the street." Because it is designed to be a wheel killer for drivers not paying attention or driving too fast.
