Install four-way stop lights at Cane Beds and Clayhole intersection
The Issue
In Colorado City, Arizona, at the intersection of Cane Beds and Clayhole, our community has witnessed far too many accidents. This issue has personally impacted my family, with members involved in multiple collisions at this very location. It is a terrifying experience every time you hear about another accident, wondering if it’s a loved one this time, and it's a recurring nightmare that no family should have to endure.
The intersection is a critical and busy junction, serving as a main conduit for residents and travelers alike. With the absence of proper traffic control measures, the risks are undeniably high. Statistics show that intersections controlled by four-way stop lights can reduce accidents by up to 40% compared to those without any signals. These lights are essential to manage traffic flow safely and reduce the likelihood of collisions.
The layout and visibility issues at Cane Beds and Clayhole make it particularly hazardous. Cars often come from different directions at high speeds, and the lack of clear priority creates confusion and danger. Adding four-way stop lights would not only clarify the right of way but also force vehicles to halt completely, reconsider, and proceed more cautiously. This small change could mean the difference between life and death.
Moreover, similar intersections in Arizona have been successfully managed through traffic lights. For instance, in Pima County, such interventions reduced fatal and non-fatal accidents significantly within the first year of implementation. We urge the relevant authorities, including the town council and the Arizona Department of Transportation, to take immediate action to install these lights.
Our community deserves to feel safe when traveling on these roads. We owe it to the families who have suffered losses and those who, like mine, have narrowly escaped tragedy. Let us come together to ensure no other family has to go through the heartache of losing a loved one or experiencing a close call at this dangerous intersection.
Join us in demanding safer roads for everyone in Arizona. Sign this petition to voice your support for installing life-saving four-way stop lights at the Cane Beds and Clayhole intersection. Your signature could very well save a life.
