A mortorcye hit the outside corner of my bumper 2 years as I was making a right turn on Browns road off paridiise valley road. Broke the plastic corner of my bumper and took off.

Sign must let drives know that this is a two lane and the turn is very sharp so slow down

Even making a left turn from Browns hill Road to 191 and making a right turn from 191 to Browns hill road is a problem. Lot of people driving on 191 towards Mt. Pocono do not know that drivers have to really slow down to make a sharp right turn to Browns hill Road (especially when there are vehicles waiting to make a left/right turn and there is hardly any space) and they don't have the patience to slow down but start honking. I agree with Tracy L. Hope and pray Penn DOT takes does not waste time.

Need flashers at intersection also. The turn to Btowns Hill Rd. Is not 90 degrees, it's more like 120 degrees. A bridge abutment blocks car traffic views.

Having seen the aftermath of incidents at this intersection and experiencing some close calls, I fully concur with this petition.

Traffic lights at the Browns Hill Rd/Paradise Valley Road would be ideal!

As someone who’s mother was in an accident on this turn by someone racing down 191 and slammed into her as she turned out (he was going so fast she didn’t even know he was there until he slammed into her) There needs to be a traffic light here! That is the only way people will slow down. Every day people race by. No one looks at the speed signs. They are obviously pointless since there was another accident this morning. How may accidents need to happen before someone is seriously hurt or killed for a real change to happen?

Also check with Paradise Township and see if they are willing to help out in the process.

I've been in Timber Hill for 30 years now. People have been killed at and near this intersection. It's dangerous from both directions. Coming from Mt Pocono and coming out at Browns Hill RD. Something definitely needs to be done in both directions.

We definitely need a second exit and 35 mph signs on 191 coming up to browns hill rd both are very serious problems for members of timber hill and paradise point
