Escalon, often praised for its charm and neighborly environment, is facing a pressing issue that urgently requires attention. The intersection of Brennan and Hwy 120, a typically bustling route, has seen an increase in traffic issues due to the absence of a traffic light. Many residents and commuters passing through this intersection have reported near misses and accidents as vehicles attempt to cross or turn onto this busy highway without proper traffic signaling. 

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that traffic signals can reduce certain types of vehicular crashes by approximately 25%. It is sensible to assume that this intersection, once equipped with a traffic signal, could experience a similar decrease in accidents. It's a safety imperative for our community. It's time for the local governing bodies to consider residents' safety as their utmost priority.

Let's come together as a community and urge local policymakers to require the installation of a traffic signal at the intersection of Brennan and Hwy 120 in Escalon. By signing this petition, you can add your voice to this crucial safety issue, advocating for a safer community route for all. Please sign this petition today.
