Description
There needs to be a 4 way stop at this intersection. There are only stop signs posted for vehicles to stop on Tawes St. There have been numerous times where I have been turning onto Tawes Street from Trappe St., and vehicles on Tawes St. have pulled out in front of me, assuming that it is a 4-way stop.
Tawes St. is a busy road in and out of Maple Lawn and the stop sign should remain on Tawes St. to keep the thru traffic slow throughout the neighborhood. However, the "Boulevard Rule" should be used at this intersection to where the smaller road (Trappe St.) should stop before preceding onto the main street (Tawes St.)

With regards to the sight distance being obscured by traffic parking on Trappe Street, we will place a couple of "No Parking Here To Corner" signs near the alley to keep the sight line clear when looking left from the stop signs on Tawes Street. Allow up to 45 days for installation.
