Resident asks Flower Mound council to install traffic signal at Lake Flower Drive intersection
Summary
At public comment, Jim O'Connor described dangerous sightlines and near misses at a recently developed intersection on Lake Flower Drive and urged the council to install a traffic signal to protect drivers and children attending a nearby Montessori school.
Jim O'Connor, a Flower Mound resident, told the council the intersection near Lake Flower Drive and recent commercial development creates blind spots for left turns, describing repeated near misses, honking and escalating tensions during rush hour. He said parents dropping children at a new Montessori school and neighborhood residents face unsafe left-turn conditions and asked the council to pursue installation of a traffic signal similar to the one at Chaparral Lane and Long Prairie Road.
The mayor thanked O'Connor for his comments and said the council would "take it into consideration" and look into the matter; no immediate council action was taken during the meeting. Residents raising traffic-safety concerns during public comment were advised to submit comment forms and that the council may follow up through staff if warranted.
