Summary

Residents in Long Branch have reached out to my office with concerns about intersection safety and speeding along Twenty Ninth Street at Elder Avenue. Many parents and children use this intersection to access a nearby school. There are no other all-way stops along Twenty Ninth Street near the school.

 

Transportation Services staff conducted a study, and both the vehicle and pedestrian volumes in the report are close to the warranted requirements. In order to provide a safer environment for pedestrians, I am requesting Transportation Services to proceed with installation of the all-way stop control at Twenty Ninth Street and Elder Avenue.
