The stops work really well with a minimum waiting time and onceit is your turn or there is no traffice you can proceed. Adding a red light cars with be sitting waiting on the red light even if there is no traffice in the other direction

I'd prefer a traffic light because it would give the option of having a flashing red or yellow light. At least they need to get rid of the stop sign at 896 and Den. Put in 5 sets of washboards in advance of that intersection if you need to, but 2 stop signs so close together causes unneeded backups.

This is an intersection that desperately needs the stop signs.

I am 55 years old and lived in the New London area my entire life. I've seen horrible accidents at this intersection and know many people have been hurt or killed. This all STOPPED when the 4-way stop was implemented. Give 896 a green light so they can keep rolling at highway speed, and the carnage will start again. Don't try to fix what isn't broken!!!!

The light is not necessary, please keep the stop signs.

Our family has lost 4 friends over the years on 896 entering Kemblesville. I am reminded every day as I commute to work.

Why change what has worked? What are we gaining by putting a light in?

I used to travel 896 everyday on my way from DE to Lincoln University and am familiar with the intersection. I traveled the this route for years before the stop signs were installed and, although I'm not a fan of the 4-way stop sign I''

Following in New Jersey's footsteps and getting rid of the 4 way stops to put in traffic lights. Thought PA was smarter than that.

I use this intersection twice daily. I used to be terrified to use it, and it finally feels safe again with the stop signs. Please don't change anything!

These stop signs have made it possible for us to get out of our drive "Hunt View Lane" without risking our lives.
