Description
I walk this route several times a week and have seen many people run this stop sign headed westbound on 40th.
I believe it’s because it sits so far off to the right, there are low hanging tree limbs and people fail to see it.
If moving it closer to the curb is not possible, then maybe you can trim the limbs and install a flashing LED stop sign. This intersection is at Northwood Elementary and I'd hate to see a pedestrian hit.
Thank you,
Chris Wheeler
