Resident urges action on Eagle Road congestion and blocked intersections
Summary
Dan Dunn told the council traffic on Eagle Road has grown so severe he and neighbors often cannot enter or leave their driveways; he asked the city to meet with the Idaho Transportation Department and consider enforcement and signage changes.
Dan Dunn, a long-time resident of Banbury Meadows, told the council that traffic on Eagle Road has steadily worsened and that residents sometimes cannot get out of their driveways. "Now on Eagle Road, we are almost locked in to our property," Dunn said, describing backups that extend past local intersections and requesting help working with ITD and police enforcement to reduce blocked intersections.
Council members and police staff acknowledged the complaint and discussed short-term and longer-term options: increased enforcement by traffic officers, painted intersection markings, and coordination with the Idaho Transportation Department on signage or lane markings. Council members asked Dunn for contact details so staff could follow up and said they would pursue a meeting with ITD and local law enforcement to explore both enforcement and engineering solutions.
Why it matters: sustained congestion that blocks neighborhood driveway access is a public-safety and quality-of-life concern; staff committed to follow-up meetings with ITD and police enforcement.
