Description
Cars traveling toward town on Riverside Drive are running the red light, especially those wanting to turn right up Pierce. This is causing a dangerous situation for those coming out of Forest Ridge Drive. I have been almost T-boned on quite a few situations. There is needs to be a pause between Riverside going Red and Forest Ridge going Green. I believe this adjustment would make the intersection much safer.

We are evaluating solutions to quell this behavior and additional signage is the first solution we can implement quickly. We will be monitoring this intersection to see if the additional signage helps to resolve this issue. There are other solutions available if the additional signage does not solve the issue.
However, if these solutions do not stop motorists from running the red light in the future, it will be an issue for the Sheriff's department to ticket offenders as the infractions occur.
Thank you for your concern.
