Description
hazard location.
This is a re-add from the post from over two years ago. Everyday around 5 people almost get into car accidents or hit crossing the street. We need a Stop Sign added to Cross St making the intersection of Cross St and Hancock St a all way stop.

Hi , You would need to contact the Traffic Commision to request the changes to install the 4 way Stops that you are looking to have installed. Please contact the Malden Police Traffic Department @ 781-397-7171 and ask for Kathy Hannon she is the clerk to the commision.
Thanks

I have been working on this issue for sometime now. Mayor Christenson, when he was the Ward Councillor brought this issue to the traffic commission and they voted NO on putting in the signs. I have brought it to the traffic commission a number of times and for one reason or another it has been shot down. BUT I am not giving up! I will once again re-introduce the issue and would WELCOME anyone who would like to see it happen attend with me. Contact me and I will be sure you get notified when the meeting is and we can organize a plan.

As so many people know, If you don't live on the street, you will not care. We need to slow people down with speed control signs and put a stop sign on Cross street making it a all way stop at Hancock St / Cross St.
Please quit dragging your feet.

It is a shortcut, but putting in a light would cost the city more money. The sun hits the hill just right and the cars that park right a the corner does not help anything. People going 40+ up and down Cross St. does not have time to stop for someone exiting Hancock St. Also, with no speed limit signs on Hancock St. Make Hancock St. a Speed zone into and out of Everett to bypass Mass Ave. The City knows this but does not care. It has gone onto their desk for well over 4 Years now and for that My wife, child and I are moving. We will not live in a city where the city does not care for its people.
