The state finally agreed to install the traffic light at the intersection of Old 95 and 93. I am overwhelmed knowing that no more families will have to suffer a loss on that stretch of road because of this change. We still need to keep a close eye on the …

I, along with several other people, have lost too many loved ones to ONE SINGLE ROAD/INTERSECTION. When is enough enough? How many more senseless deaths do there have to be before something is done about it? Patch work will not save a road! Old 95 and the intersection at 93 is getting the same respect as "Dead Man's Curve" going out towards Cameron. Too many people were tragically lost on that road before lights and signs were put in place. Those lights have now tremendously cut down on accidents on that road. I grew up in Academy and now live in Temple, and I cannot even come close to guessing the grand total amount of wrecks/deaths caused by Old 95 and the intersection at 93. I'm saying it now. Enough is enough. I will not sit by and not at least try to do something. When people talk about avoiding a certain road because they're scared of it, that is absurd, but completely understandable. If you are somebody who has been affected by this road/intersection, I urge you to "sign" this petition. If you're somebody who cares for the wellbeing of people, I urge you to "sign" this petition. I've had enough.

Seeing one thousand names on this list confirms that I am not the only one haunted by the dangers of this intersection. My heart aches for everyone who knows the pain of losing someone here, but I am proud of the momentum we have built together.

We are approaching one thousand signatures and I need your help to push us over that mark before our meeting with the county commissioners. Please send this link to your neighbors so they understand that we will no longer tolerate the danger at this intersection.

The time is long past to do something different at this intersection. Maybe pressure needs to be put on county commissioner and on up. I believe there is yet to be a run off on our county commissioner so maybe pressure needs to be applied!
Put in a light or an overpass, but something has to be done before another senseless death. Losing one person is too many, but I can think of at least 3 that have lost their life and 1 little girl who was crippled from a truck hitting her school bus. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
Measures to increase and ensure safety at this crossing are long overdue. This intersection was a problem when I was in school ('96-'00) and the problem has only gotten worse with the increase in loss of life. Time to take action! The life saved may be a loved one of yours!
I myself know people who avoid 95 because of this deadly intersection. I've know several people that have been in accidents there, along with several who have lost their life's. It would bring peace to family's who have lost love ones and to people who avoid it Simply from fear.
I live about 3 houses away from the intersection. Ive lived their for almoat 25 years & i have seen numerous of accidents/deaths at this intersection. Enough is enough. Some kind of street lights or blinking lights need to be put here.
There have been to many people killed or hurt for life on this intersection.
Get it done please. It's way to dangerous.

My son was involved in the bus accident a few years back.. He has a scar on his lip for a reminder... A girl was paralyzed and the bus driver was killed... enough is enough... Don't see why we can't have a lighted stop sign that is solar powered at the very least!
