Description

Hello, the telephone pole across from 75 Forest Avenue was struck head first by a vehicle last night. Two years ago, it was struck two days in a row and fell down causing a power outage. Someone needs to put lights, a barrier or reflective signage around it to make it safer. I know of at least three high impact collisions in the last two years. The Pole is located on a bend in the street and people are usually speeding.
