Description

there are currently stop signs on the Gravel Hill sides to cross Rt 537. People don't stop or they try to cross 537 when cars are going very fast. Accidents are happening with alarming frequency.

How about making it a "Right Turn ONLY" from Gravel Hill onto 537 East AND West! And a "No Left Turn" from 537 in both directions. This would keep traffic moving and alleviate some of the danger. Let's see how that works before installing a light and causing more backups on 537 simply to accommodate the left-turning cars esp. considering the speed limit on 537 and the often careless drivers making, or attempting to make these turns. There are alternate routes and they are nearby. Seems like a plausible option - at least one to try.

Since I originally posted this there have been more accidents and just last night I witnessed a near miss as a car coming down 537 was not seen by a car turning onto 537 - luckily they both hit their breaks but still, THIS IS NOT A SAFE INTERSECTION - they started repaving the road to widen it - where is the light????

Still think it should be a "RIGHT TURN ONLY" intersection from ALL directions. It will alleviate the "going for it" attitude from drivers in a hurry, and reduce the need for a light. A traffic light will only slow, stop traffic on 537, which is already way to crazy.

Well they are doing massive construction work now to widen the lanes and eventually, the light will be there. There will be a right turn lane from 537 onto Gravel Hill from 537 and I think from Grave Hill onto 537. They are eventually planning to widen the entire length of 537 from there down to Great Adventure into a 4 lane road ao the traffic is not going to stop. I drive through the developments now, Much easier.
