I work at a large medical office complex in Henrietta, NY, situated at the intersection of Calkins Rd and Red Creek Drive. Every day, my colleagues, our patients, and I face unnecessary risks due to the traffic congestion and limited access to this essential healthcare facility, which comprises six buildings with only one entrance and exit. The current infrastructure not only causes significant delays but also compromises the safety of everyone visiting or working here.

This intersection needs an additional exit or a traffic light to facilitate smooth and safe passage. With hundreds of people entering and exiting the complex daily, the existing single access point is not only inadequate but also poses a potential threat during emergencies when every second counts. This becomes particularly important during peak hours when traffic is dense and navigating in and out of the complex becomes even more challenging.

Consider the consequences: emergency vehicles could be delayed when time is of the essence, patients may miss critical medical appointments, and congestion could lead to more traffic accidents—all due to inadequate access. These factors jeopardize the well-being of our community.

Data shows that medical and healthcare facilities with limited access points report higher incidences of traffic-related incidents and delays in emergency response time. By simply adding another exit or installing a traffic light at this busy intersection, we can significantly reduce these risks and ensure everyone’s safety.

This is not just about convenience—it's about ensuring the safety and efficiency of medical services in our area. A practical infrastructure improvement such as this can make a tremendous difference.

We urge the local government and transportation authorities to assess this situation urgently and take measures to enhance roadway safety and accessibility at the Calkins Rd and Red Creek Drive intersection. Please stand with us to request an immediate review and action to address this critical need.

Sign this petition to demand a safer, more accessible access point to our medical complex. Your support can lead to impactful change that safeguards our community’s well-being.
