Forgot one portion, Republic road phase 4 and 5 should be kicking off this Spring, it will add 2 lanes through the intersection and add additional turn lanes, maybe will help some.

This is the main bottleneck of the area. Campbell northbound into Republic westbound left turn lane always overflows back into the regular lane.

Easy to tell who commutes it everyday because they get in the right lane like 4 lights ahead to avoid the overflow from people turning onto Republic.

Oh definitely, I also have gone through that most days over the past few years, but it's not just Republic road, it's also the sequence of 6 lights (Weaver, Lakewood, Camino Alto, 2 X JRF, then Republic) within 1 mile that completely destroys any flow of traffic.

True, true. When I'm coming in from Nixa, I always hit that middle lane and take it straight through past Republic RD cause it's usually flowing pretty good. The lanes on either side are a nightmare though.
