The next one up is in the First Ward. |
The Plainfield Police Division has announced yet another new 4-way STOP sign intersection, this one at Leland Avenue and George Street, set to take effect Friday, August3.
Maybe the public would be less annoyed if the complete list of planned 4-way stops were published all at once, with the schedule of effective dates.
The Division could continue the release of news updates a few days before each one is to become effective, but at least the public would know there is an end in sight.
On another front, why doesn't Plainfield adopt a "Don't Block The Box" ordinance like many other cities have?
There are numerous intersections where piggy drivers line up behind cars and leave themselves blocking the intersection when the light changes. West Front and Central, West 5th and Park, and East Front and Watchung come immediately to mind.
A fine of $250 for blocking an intersection would help improve traffic flow immensely.
