CHARLOTTE -- Some drivers along Tryon Street in Charlotte say they've had major traffic headaches since the Blue Line extension opened last week.

Residents say turning left at many of the intersections has taken upwards of 10 minutes. 

On UNC-Charlotte student says his commute time has doubled and he thinks it's because the traffic lights do not appear to be synced with the train yet. 

We have reached out to Charlotte's Department of Transportation, but have not yet heard back.
