The below signatures represent people who are concerned about the safety issues surrounding the egress of cars from Barrack onto Bryn Mawr Avenue. Not only parents need to exit Barrack onto Bryn Mawr Avenue, but also buses, full of students, as well as student drivers. In order to exit, drivers often have to be overly aggressive to create a gap in the traffic flow on Bryn Mawr Avenue. This creates an unsafe situation for all cars present at the intersection. The below people, as well as many more concerned township citizens that we do not have access to,would like to see the township implement a solution to the above mentioned dangerous traffic situation.

I live less than half a mile from Barrack and my son attends the school. While many drivers adhere to the school hours speed limit, those that don't create a dangerous situation. Additionally, I see every day how difficult it is for buses, student drivers and parents to enter and exit the school. An officer to direct traffic during those morning and afternoon hours would greatly help the situation.
It is egregious that there is no light there. In addition, there should be a safety walkway with blinking lights for the pedestrians.
I have, in fact, had a car accident exited Barrack onto S. Bryn Mawr Avenue, and my vehicle was totaled as a result.
The Avenue is very busy, a continuous line of cars with 3 schools all within a short distance. Aggressiveness is necessary to get onto the road from the driveway, and always dangerous! Please help.
Traffic both entering into the Barrack property from Bryn Mawr Ave. as well as exiting from Barrack onto Bryn Mawr Ave is definitely a challenge. A (programmable) traffic light at the school entrance/exit would improve traffic flow and the safety of all vehicles.
A nightmare both at morning and afternoon drop off/ pick up times!!
Parent at the school and this is a very dangerous situation.

I believe a stop light would make the already horrendous rush hour back up on Bryn Mawr Avenue worse. There is a problem and it needs a solution. There are intermediate courses of action to try before a requesting a stop light.
