Hello Petition Supporters,

My name is Alexandra, and I'm on the Civic Engagement team at Change.org. Our team works to connect petition starters and supporters with the public officials who have the power to act on the issues you care about. One of the ways we do this is to contact decision makers directly from our platform.

The message below is a reply from a city official from the Indiana Department of Transportation to one of those emails. It shows how your support is being shared with local officials and becoming part of the decision-making process:

Good Morning Alexandra,

Thank you for reaching out to the Indiana Department of Transportation regarding the petition for a traffic light at US 20 and Quince Road in South Bend.

I appreciate your effort in bringing this important safety concern to our attention.

Your detailed information has been entered into our database, and we will assign this matter to our personnel responsible for operations in that area to conduct a traffic study.

Please be aware that these studies typically take a few weeks to complete.

We appreciate your patience during this process and will keep you informed of the results once the investigation is concluded.

Thank you again for your advocacy and for helping us improve safety in our community.
