The Public Safety & Transportation Committee Met last night and voted in favor of a 4 way stop sign being installed at the intersection of Fairway & Bunker. Yours truly, Tamara & Terrence we’re in attendance.
The committee debated this for a good half hour. The Traffic Council, which has previously denied this petition, argued that because of traffic volume & speed studies there didn’t need to be a stop sign. Said too many stop signs in Newton will mean drivers start to ignore them and make traffic more congested.
Then Sergent Babcock from NPD spoke and was like this is common sense. There are a lot kids there and drivers do speed through there.
Brock Dillworth, Fairway bro and petition originator, spoke next and basically said the intersection puts our kids in danger. Tamara chimed in and Terrence came in with a flamethrower at the end talking about blood on the committee’s hands if they don’t do something.
Anyway, should be happening in next few weeks. Thanks to Brock Dillworth for making this happen.
Good work you guys
