Description

The unusual intersection of Gardner St. and Everett Ave. causes confusion and near accidents frequently. The most common scenario is South-bound traffic on Everette (driving counter-clockwise around the Rose Garden) failing to Yield to North-bound traffic on Gardner. The line of sight and street arrangement makes this an easy mistake for drivers, in spite of the signage.

One simple fix that could be effective is to add a dashed white stripe (or whatever is the regulation markings for this situation) to the street surface. Some indication along the east side of Gardner to indicate that it is the primary thoroughfare, would be extremely helpful.
