Neighbors Voice Concerns about Safety of Intersection at Lukes Wood and Michigan Roads
|
Town officials said Tuesday that they’ll study the speeds of cars traveling southbound on Lukes Wood Road after hearing concerns from neighborhood residents that limited sight lines make it difficult for motorists at the Michigan Road intersection to see approaching vehicles. Police Capt. John DiFederico said he also will seek not only speeds but measurements on line-of-site distance for motorists waiting at the end of Michigan Road to turn onto Lukes Wood Road. Part of what makes it difficult for Michigan Road motorists is a bend in Lukes Wood Road just before the intersection, DiFederico said at a meeting of the Traffic Calming Work Group. The administrative team includes members of the Police, Fire, Emergency Management and Public Works departments. It fields residents’ requests for traffic calming, making recommendations to the Police Commission.
