Stop light, Stop sign, or speed bump on dangerous intersection


Stop light, Stop sign, or speed bump on dangerous intersection
The Issue
Maybelle and Macarthur Blvd Intersection is DANGEROUS! In just 1 month there have been 4 accidents. How ridiculous is that?! There are stop signs on Maybelle only. And one traffic light on 39th and Macarthur and one one high street and Macarthur. People speed down Macarthur like it’s a raceway. A gentleman did the same just today and got seriously injured. Back in 2016 a man died and another seriously injured. And many more in between. This is getting ridiculous. You can’t cross there unless the street is not too busy (rare) or a kind enough driver stops and let’s you across (rare). For someone turning off Maybelle and onto Macarthur you either risk being hit or you wait a millennium to turn when someone finally lets you or the traffic slows enough. I can’t count the many times I’ve waited 8-9-10 minutes just to cross and finally a kind person stops traffic to let me go and even then sometimes it only stops traffic one way and I’m stuck in the middle of the street waiting.
When will we get a traffic light, a stop sign, or even some speed bumps to slow people down? When someone finally dies? When someone sues the city? This has got to end now. We need some resolution.
