Description

Franklin Street has exploded in growth and this intersection is challenging as well as dangerous.
Franklin Street does not line up with Iroquois. The street light holds on Franklin while it turns green for Iroquois. There is constant confusion as drivers on Iroquois become frustrated with those on Franklin, thinking they are waiting and not going (the light is not yet green.)

Making a left onto Franklin is challenging as drivers turning left onto Iroquois, coming from the opposite direction, cannot safely do so because cars illegally cut around the car heading left onto Iroquois.

As my teenage boys have begun driving, there is no safe way to explain to them how to make these choices.

Also, all of Franklin Street and internal other roads use the Park Place Bar entrance as an exit, thus creating more danger.
