This continues to be an issue after two years. Two stop signs on each side of the road (instead of a single yield sign) would be a simple, inexpensive solution while we wait for the continued construction on this section of I95.

Have you reported this issue to DOT using their reporting tool?

no - I didn't know that there was one. took a little searching but I think I found the tool. thanks for the tip.

You can also contact the State DOT District 3 Office at (203) 389-3010.

I did report the issue to the state DOT on 8/1/12 and got a very quick, polite response, indicating that signage follows national guidelines, and that oversignage is as much of a safety risk as undersignage. I was also told that because they follow national regulations, it is probably not a signage problem, but instead, a compliance issue. That is, law enforcement should be enforcing the signs. After I protested a little bit, I was told that the intersection would be looked at and I would be notified if changes were to be made.

I'm no expert on signage. And I'm certainly not clear what needs to happen, whose responsibility it is, or whether or not adding a larger or second sign would create oversignage safety risks. I do know that if I weren't aware of the problem, I would have been hit (again) just yesterday because of a driver who tore through the yield sign.

This issue was recategorized from Signs to Other.

So it's been a few years, the Big Reconfiguration is well underway and this problem has not been addressed, and about a half-dozen additional problems have been added. This stretch of Ella Grasso/Sea Street has become a lesson in saintly patience and defensive driving. I give up! I guess the solution is to go out of my way and avoid this stretch of road at all costs....

We are trying to delineate issues that are current and need the city's attention to resolve. Any issues prior to 2013 are being closed. If your issue remains and needs to be addressed by the city, please either re-open or open as a new See Click Fix issue. Thanks.
