During a recent government meeting, discussions centered around traffic safety measures at a specific intersection, highlighting concerns over recent accidents and the effectiveness of existing signage. A committee member raised the issue of potentially adding additional traffic lights to enhance visibility and safety at the intersection, particularly on the left side of the road.

Jeff, a representative from the traffic department, acknowledged the suggestion, noting that while the current stop sign setup had been effective in some respects, the recent incident involved a driver who had stopped. He indicated that the department would continue to evaluate the situation over the coming week, considering options such as increasing the size of the primary stop sign and possibly adding more blinking lights.

The conversation also touched on the absence of stop signs on the cross street, with Jeff explaining that the traffic volume on Center Road did not meet the necessary criteria to justify an always-stop sign. This decision is based on established traffic warrants that dictate when such measures can be implemented.

The meeting concluded with a procedural note, as the committee moved on to approve the minutes from a previous transportation meeting held on September 3rd. The discussions reflect ongoing efforts to enhance road safety and address community concerns regarding traffic management.
