Surely, ideally, IMNSHO, the number of lanes should only ever change at a junction. Lanes should peel off to or join on from other roads. There's a conspicuous example of this not happening on East Road, and it annoys me every time I use the road in that direction, because traffic has to merge for no good reason. A relatively simple fix might be to mark the right lane right-turn-only from the previous junction up to that point and put a traffic island about where my marker is.
