New York State Route 37 Speed Reduction and Traffic Light Installation
PETITION SUMMARY AND BACKGROUND: The Town of Theresa, New York business corridor is located on ALL New York State roadways. With the growth of the Town of Theresa and the traffic going through this town, it is necessary to reduce the speed. WE ARE REQUESTING THESE CHANGES TO MINIMIZE AND PREVENT ACCIDENTS AND FATALITIES.
ACTION PETITIONED FOR: We, the undersigned, are concerned citizens, who urge our leaders to act now to have the speed limit reduced on New York State Route 37 starting just south of the State Route 411 to just north of the New York State Route 26 in Theresa, New York.

This is a very dangerous intersection with so many ways of ingress and egress. You need eyes in the back and sides of your head to avoid problems. People drive way too fast and are continually passing on the right through the intersection.
It's a very dangerous spot and even more so now!
Light is needed!! To many accidents there!!
Need to lower speed too many driveways and cars coming and going from the businesses to have the speed limit at 55 as if actually drives 55.
I travel this area in the summer,staying with family and friends. this is a much needed light. MARY JO AMES
I was almost hit once there.
I have lived on this corner (Cooper's Corners) my whole life. We've had several fatalities here, along with several more accidents. Recently, with the development of several new businesses, traffic has been increasing, as have the number of close calls. People do not pay attention while others are turning, people pass each other on the inside or outside while they are turning, or blow right through the stop signs completely. High rates of speed are another issue. I'm scared to pull out of mine, or my parents driveway who live right next door, because people fly by at high rates of speed, screeching to a halt at the stop sign. Something has to be done. I see what goes on here on a daily basis. A speed limit change would be a great help, a stop light even better. Please take this into consideration. I'm very concerned for my safety, as well as others. Thank you.

I nearly got rear-ended by a tractor trailer last Sunday, trying to make a right-hand turn.
