That particular stretch west of 10 St is mainly to provide a smooth merge in to conclude the lane reversal. That's it, really.

Yeah. Seems to be causing more traffic than solving? At least on the eastbound side anyway. Or maybe it's operating too late in the day...I've been going that way for a while now and there's very little traffic heading west at around 6:00 whereas eastbound is backed up all the way past 14th.
