16 year old Elias Burr was killed August 2nd, 2016 at the intersection of State Hwy 127 and Kruckeberg Road while driving with his two younger brothers(who were severely injured) to play basketball at the park.  Elias is just the most recent in a string of fatalities and injuries.   Living near the intersection rarely a week goes by that we don't hear the sirens of yet another accident.  It is time to do something to prevent more needless loss of life.

A median must be immediately placed to stop cross traffic at the intersection.  Drivers are challenged with heavy traffic at high rates of speed 60 mph speed limit (which means drivers are going 65 mph plus) while traveling across 6 lanes of traffic activity.  While the road is open for some distance, visibility is poor as the drivers are constantly changing lanes and it's difficult to see which lanes they are traveling in.

We don't need to lose more of our loved ones and children to this intersection for the convenience of people saving a minute or two to cross at this intersection.  With the new school opening up, travel will only be increasing at this intersection.

Please, show your support for this incredibly important safety change.  Please sign here to support closing the median at State Route 127 and Kruckeberg Road.
