Board schedules hearing on stop signs for West Shore Road and South Bay Avenue
Summary
Brightwaters trustees set a public hearing for Sept. 8, 2025, to consider adding stop signs at West Shore Road intersections near Walker Beach following resident concerns about pedestrian safety; the board invited public input at the hearing.
The Brightwaters Village Board scheduled a public hearing for Monday, Sept. 8, 2025, at 7:30 p.m. at Village Hall to consider proposed stop-sign additions at West Shore Road & South Bay Avenue and at West Shore Road & Fenway Avenue as part of a separate local law (described in the record as Law 6-2025).
Trustees said the locations near Walker Beach lack east-west stop control and carry significant pedestrian traffic to beach access points. The board approved the motion to set the hearing by voice vote and encouraged residents to attend and provide input; no final decision on those signs was made at the meeting.
The scheduling action follows a village traffic study and resident concerns about pedestrian safety in beach access areas. The board expects to present consultant findings and resident comment at the public hearing before any ordinance change.
