Residents tell council crosswalk by Circle K is dangerous; ADOT to install HAWK signal at Clark and 90
Summary
Public commenters described a hazardous crosswalk at Circle K where lights are not visible and a child was struck; Mayor Wallace reported ADOT will remove the crosswalk and install a HAWK overhead red light signal at Clark and 90.
Residents told the Huachuca City Council on Jan. 22 that a marked crosswalk by the Circle K is unsafe because vehicle drivers reportedly do not see the signal. Lonnie Brock urged the town to install a safer crossing, saying the lights are not visible. Tami Ackerson said her daughter was struck while using the crosswalk and pressed the council to act.
Mayor Johann R. Wallace reported that, following a meeting with ADOT, the agency will remove the existing crosswalk and install a new crossing with a HAWK overhead red light signal at Clark and 90. The announcement followed public comment and was reported during Council members' reports of current events.
