说明
The intersection of W Rock Ave and Edgewood Ave is very dangerous. It needs a traffic light or at least a convex mirror to assist drivers. Cars parked along Edgewood Ave block the view of the intersection when going through the intersection from W Rock Ave. This necessitates drivers to encroach half way through the intersection in order to see if there are oncoming cars. This is also a high traffic area because of Edgewood Ave Elementary School. There was a bad wreck at this intersection recently and it is dangerous for children.
This was posted months ago and no action has been taken.

Agreed that this intersection is dangerous, particularly in light of the school.
When driving north on W. Rock across Edgewood, the parked cars on the left make it impossible to see oncoming traffic that is accelerating from the Central / Edgewood intersection. Not a good combination.
Another suggestion might be to post "no parking" signs in front of the spots blocking the safe view of the oncoming traffic. Likely this would affect 2-3 spots on the southwest corner of the intersection. (Not ideal for those who currently park there, but it'd be a lot safer than it is now)

Thank you trish, Matt Higbee and K8 for you comments. I have had 2 recent face-to-face conversations with Adam Marchand, Ward 25 Alder, and he has called the recently appointed head of Traffic and Transportation in New Haven:
Douglas Hausladen
Director
200 Orange St. G3
New Haven, CT 06510
203-946-8075
email:dhausladen@newhavenct.net
Mr. Marchand said that Mr. Hausladen has not returned his telephone call. I suggest we post this issue to our respective Facebook pages to bring this to the attention of our neighbors. The city has been aware of this dangerous intersection for over a year and done nothing. I wonder how Mayor Harp feels about this issue? Please consider posting this to her Facebook page and asking for some of our tax money to be spent rectifying this dangerous (to us and our children) situation. Thank you Adam for advocating for this issue.
