As someone who lives at this intersection I strongly agree. I see families who have been to the greenway try to cross this street everyday. And everyday they risk their lives. If they try to cross at Wynsom they get mowed down by the drivers flying down Mountain Gap from the west who take the turn onto Chaney Thompson and hit the accelerator to fly even faster down Chaney Thompson. I have seen near misses and hits. Signs are knocked down on a regular basis. After a while I quit reporting it to the city and just fix it myself. Speeding and drag racing on Chaney Thompson and ESPECIALLY Mountain Gap needs to be stopped.
Thank you for contacting the City of Huntsville Traffic Engineering. After meeting with other departments in the City, this intersection has been added to the improvements list for a future date. We intend to add ramps and pedestrian cross walk/ pedestrian signs when the work is implemented. Thank you once again and for your patience in this matter.
