Add traffic cameras to 176th and Meridian. Famous for extreme red light runners.
The intersection 176th and Meridian, in South Hill is notorious for red light runners. Eveytime I’m at that intersection, there’s at least one person running a light. I have had close calls and seen close calls due to irresponsible, impatient people. It’s extremely dangerous for everyone. I know it will never officially end, but traffic cameras would definitely help reduce the amount of illegal, dangerous acts. Also, more opportunities for the city to give tickets, and get more money! Pierce County should protect their citizens and they will benefit from more tickets. Win win! That intersection is bound for a major/devistating wreck, you wouldn’t want that to be your family, and neither do I.
