A stop sign at this intersection will greatly increase safety of all local residents.

There are a lot of young and new drivers in that area. Let's take the necessary precautions to keep them safe.

At the very least a flashing amber warning light on the southbound lanes 200-300 feet north of the intersection.

This intersection is dangerous due to the lack of visibility from the curvature in the road.

This is a dangerous intersection due to high speed of travel and bushes that partially block view of cars coming around the curve on 95th. When turning north or south onto 95th street from Alan Deatherage there is often a car upon you that you didn't see even when properly checking for cars. I believe that the visibility needs to be improved (removal/replacement of bushes) and speed needs to be reduced for this intersection to function properly.

The city had a plan for that road to go through. But didn't think through the dangers at that intersection. Put a traffic light before someone gets hurt.

There is a visibility issue with the street curve, southbound; and speed. One must creep forward to obtain a better view of approaching traffic prior to entering King's Rd.

I too have had concerns about the safety of this intersection. I needs to be maintained for the safety of all.

Turning from eastbound Allen Deatherage onto Kings/95th is very dangerous due to intersection visability and speed limit. Since Kings/95th opened I have witnessed numerous close calls including 2 involving school busses. If traffic volume does not justify a stop sign/light shouldn't safety also be considered?

If nothing else, increased police presence, patrol, and few speeding tickets would be welcome.

This is a very dangerous intersection turning left onto Kings/95th from Alan Deatherage. Perhaps the study had little data due to the short time it's been open. I'd hate to think there's a quota on the number of accidents that have to occur before anything gets done. Being proactive is safer.

I feel the intersection is very unsafe. You can not see very well due to the curve & it becomes even more dangerous when people are driving over the speed limit.

Very dangerous intersection. I think a stop sign or a light is needed. The curve in the road is blocking the view.

I'm afraid of my kids crossing the road. There are no signs saying slow down for children. I have seen three accidents there also. We need a flashing sign!!

I agree, this intersection clearly needs some safety improvements and it baffles me that we have to wait until some serious accidents happen before they will consider a light or stop sign
