Police study prompts Lynbrook board to add stop sign near West End School
Summary
After a two‑month traffic study conducted by village police, the Lynbrook board approved installing a stop sign at the Marshall/Bertis intersection near West End School to address crashes and traffic conflicts in the school zone.
The Lynbrook Village Board voted June 15 to install a stop sign at the Marshall/Bertis intersection near West End School following a two‑month traffic study presented to the board.
A police representative summarized Sergeant Mera’s report and data from new traffic software showing accidents and chaotic traffic patterns in the school vicinity. The police recommended adding a stop sign for the Bertis approach to improve safety; the mayor asked for a motion and the board approved the recommendation by voice consent.
No formal roll‑call tally was recorded in the meeting transcript; the action was approved by a voice vote. The board instructed staff to implement the change and the police to monitor results after installation.
Board members commented on traffic and student pickup activity in the area during the discussion, saying the location is in the vicinity of West End School and that the new sign ‘‘would probably help the situation.’”
