We are residents living near the intersection of E 14th Street and Joel Boulevard in Lehigh Acres, FL. Over time, we have witnessed an alarming number of accidents at this intersection. Our fear grows each day as we watch vehicles speed through without any traffic control measures in place.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), intersections with traffic signals reduce severe accident rates by approximately 50%. This statistic is not just a number for us; it represents our friends, family, and neighbors who risk their lives every day on this dangerous corner.

We believe that installing a traffic signal at this intersection will significantly improve safety for all road users - drivers, pedestrians, and cyclists alike. It's not just about reducing accidents; it's about preserving our community's peace of mind when navigating through our neighborhood.

We urge the local authorities to take immediate action to install a traffic signal at the intersection of E 14th Street and Joel Boulevard. Please sign this petition to show your support for safer roads in Lehigh Acres.
