Resident asks community board to pursue stop‑sign and traffic study on Woodhall corridor
Summary
A resident raised a safety concern about a one‑side stop sign on Woodhall/Maze corridor; committee members advised filing a 311 Street Sign request, collecting neighborhood petitions and referring the matter to the transportation committee for study.
A local resident told the committee that a stop sign in a multi‑street intersection is missing on one side, creating safety and access problems during morning and evening peak hours. Committee members recommended the resident file a 311 Street Sign request and gather petitions from neighbors as the first steps. Member 4 also said the matter should be brought to the transportation committee so staff can run a study and advise on whether a four‑way stop is warranted.
Why it matters: residents said drivers frequently fail to stop, creating hazards for pedestrians and drivers; board referrals to transportation and DOT are the standard path to request a permanent traffic control change.
What’s next: the resident was advised to start a 311 request and collect neighborhood signatures; the community board will monitor and, if warranted, refer the matter to transportation committee for formal study.
