Committee backs all-way stop at State Street and Trumbull Road, citing safety and grant funding
Summary
The Legislative Matters Committee voted to forward a positive recommendation for an ordinance to establish an all-way stop at State Street and Trumbull Road, saying the location meets stop-control warrants and implementation costs will be covered by a state grant.
The Legislative Matters Committee recommended forwarding an ordinance to establish an all-way stop at the intersection of State Street and Trumbull Road on July 17, 2025.
The ordinance (file b25-292, referred to the committee by the City Council on July 10, 2025) would create an all-way stop control at State Street and Trumbull Road. The committee heard that the location meets the established warrants for an all-way stop and that the city has obtained a grant to study and implement the change; a committee speaker said the costs would be paid by the state. The speaker and other members cited numerous near-accidents at that corner and said the change would slow traffic and improve safety for all users.
Transportation and Parking Commission staff recommended the all-way stop, and committee members voted by voice to forward a positive recommendation to the City Council. The vote was recorded as unanimous among those present.
The recommendation will now go to the full City Council for final action. No amendments or implementation timeline beyond the grant-funded study and installation were specified during the committee discussion.
