Concerns over traffic safety took center stage at the Caroline County Commissioners Meeting on September 2, 2025, as officials discussed ongoing issues at a key intersection. Commissioners highlighted a troubling pattern of accidents, particularly at the intersection involving Double Hills, where drivers often fail to yield to oncoming traffic.
One commissioner noted, “There are some accidents there because people don’t yield,” emphasizing the need for immediate action to address the dangerous situation. The discussion drew parallels to a previous successful intervention at the River Road and Route 404 intersection, where staggered traffic lights were implemented to improve safety.
The meeting underscored the urgency of enhancing traffic management in the area, with officials considering similar measures to mitigate risks at the Double Hills intersection. As the county grapples with these safety challenges, residents can expect further discussions and potential solutions in upcoming meetings.
