They don't care

This issue hasn't been resolved since August 2019

pretty serious accident, both went to e.r.
now people are driving the wrong way down s.2nd because the road is closed there.

Nbsee you're a genius. Taxi company is going to love you.

welp, guess it just goes to show that there are stop signs needed for both westbound (prior report) and eastbound (this report) where Griffin CT crosses s 2nd

We will have Traffic look into this issue. Thank you for using See Click Fix.

CITY OF NEW BEDFORD WAS WARNED OF THE MISSING STOP SIGNS MULTIPLE TIMES. Another accident occurred this morning - someone was almost killed. FIX THIS TODAY.

Who was responsible for the decision to ignore this????????

City is liable for future accidents: https://law.justia.com/cases/massachusetts/supreme-court/volumes/410/410mass28.html

(For all accidents that have occurred since they were given notice of the missing sign.)

Spoke to a helpful person at the Traffic Division. In order for a stop sign to be installed, their must be 3 accidents within a 1-year period, and an official petition must be filed (Lindsey should have noted this need for a petition when she replied to the original complaint).

Also, in order to install a stop sign, there must be 3 accidents within a 1-year period. We now have Aug 3, 2020 and May 14, 2020. Does anyone have a record or any other accidents going back until Aug 4, 2019? Laurie at the Traffic Division is also doing research on this to see if she can bring the issue in front of the Traffic Commission at their monthly meeting.

Of course, I believe that it is clear that this is a seriously faulty intersection, and can not wait even another single day. Someone is going to be seriously injured or worse. This was a major major oversight by whoever redesigned the traffic systems when they opened this street up to Route 18.

At the moment, local traffic flows through at 30mph on Second Street. This is a recipe for disaster at this currently unregulated intersection where traffic, by law, must pass through at no more than 15 mph.

Aug 3, 2020, 3-car accident.

holy crap that's a bad one.

More accidents, same same, lack of response from city

Accident today will be your third

The stop sign is on the south east corner of So. Second stopping the So. Second St traffic

Yes thanks I am aware of that sign. There needs to be signs east and west bound on griffin ct ALSO. the accidents have not abated.

Aaaand another today

Another accident now at this intersection. Bad one.
This needs fixing and the city is already aware of it and it keeps happening due to lack of sign and there shouldn't be a PETITION required to fix what is already known. There wasn't any accidents here until the stop sign was removed from griffin court westbound coming off of 18. The city has CAUSED this by failing to replace the stop sign that was there before the construction for the school access road was started.

The parties involved in this last accident have to sue the city at this point. Only way to get it fixed. Let me know if you want me to join in (I was a party to an accident — going 5mph or less, collided with a young man blasting through prob at a legal-ish? 30mph, spun his car around.)
