Description
We used to have cones here to direct traffic to the new stop placement but since the cones were temporary and the 2 remaining are repeatedly moved by residents we have a new issue. Traffic doesn't go to the stop but rather just flies through with stopping at all. So where we had one path onto Grove before there are now two and it's constant confusions and near miss accidents. Is there an alternative or something more "fixed" that clearly denotes the intended traffic path. Things are more dangerous now that you have traffic going in 5 different directions.

Thank you for your concern. This issue has been received by our department.
The changes were made due to a request to improve the formerly existing conditions. The improvements do rely on adherence and some devices may help with adherence vs. just markings.
In terms of installing something more semi-permanent, due to the varying feedback received, a petition denoting support for such a request would be much appreciated. All direct abutters of Johnston Ave. (including corner houses or abutting backyards) should have an opportunity to give their opinion on the petition.
Sincerely,
Todd Blake
