closed: Submission Received #213452

Traffic Suggestions:

Other: The intersection of E Hillside Drive and Woodlawn Ave (leading to Bryan Park) is dangerous. Many cars back up at this intersection, coming from the university or the park, to turn on E Hillside Drive. With E Hillside Drive funneling so much traffic in both directions, people tend to take whatever openings they can get, often not following standard traffic laws (such as yielding to whoever was there first). This intersection would highly benefit from a stop sign. There was a dangerous accident there this morning (see attached photo), where a car flipped upside down from the impact.

Responded to resident and explained that staff will review Hillside/Woodlawn to determine whether an all-way stop is warranted based on traffic volumes and crash history, and will also consider other safety or signage improvements if appropriate.

Thanks for reaching out and for sharing the information about the crash at Hillside and Woodlawn. We’ll take a look at the intersection, including traffic volumes and crash history, to see whether additional stop control would be appropriate. If an all-way stop is not warranted, we’ll also consider whether there are other safety improvements or signage changes that would make sense at this location. Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
