Description

Every morning that I am here I see at least one person go eastbound on Huron through a red light or a very, very late yellow. Usually it happens at a high rate of speed because the commuters are trying to 'beat' the light.
This morning I witnessed a driver going through on green at what I judged to be about 40mph, not even bothering to slow down. A few seconds later another driver blew through a red light at about 40mph, not even a hint of braking. Neither of these seemed like a very safe thing to do at this intersection.
Given that the speed limit on this road has been dropped to 25mph, and this road being a pretty obvious bypass of Fresh Pond Parkway backups, may I suggest that the city consider adding traffic calming measures to discourage drivers from speeding.
