Petition to Install Traffic Lights on Road 82 in Fort Myers and Lehigh Acres, FL

 

To: Florida Department of Transportation, Lee County Board of Commissioners, and Local City Officials

 

Subject: Urgent Request for Traffic Lights on Road 82 to Ensure Public Safety

 

1: Who is impacted?

Residents of Fort Myers and Lehigh Acres, as well as daily commuters along Road 82, are at serious risk due to the lack of adequate traffic lights. Families, schoolchildren, and workers face dangerous driving conditions, particularly during peak hours, with speeding vehicles and difficult intersections. Pedestrians, cyclists, and drivers alike have experienced frequent accidents and near-misses, putting countless lives in danger.

 

2: What is at stake?

If traffic lights are not installed, the risk of accidents, injuries, and fatalities will continue to rise. These preventable tragedies are a serious concern for the community. Installing traffic lights would not only enhance traffic flow and reduce confusion at intersections but also safeguard the lives of all who travel this road daily. Without immediate action, families will continue to suffer unnecessary loss, and our communities will remain vulnerable to future accidents.

 

3: Why is now the time to act?

Now is the time to act before more lives are lost. With increased development in Fort Myers and Lehigh Acres. 

Your signature can save your family, friends life and even yours. 

Thank you for your urgent attention to this matter.
