We just hit 250 signatures and the city council can no longer ignore this. These dangerous intersections at Baker and Cedar are killing people while the city sits on its hands.

We live just north of Baker Road and Cedar. We have witnessed so many accidents there, with death, and injuries over the last several years… We have been praying for a four way stop at this intersection, and are very nervous when we have to go into Manhattan and drive through that area.
I live in neighboring New Lenox and don’t like traveling to Manhattan because of high speeds and poor lighting. It just isn’t safe. Also add the increased semi truck traffic and it’s a recipe for disaster.
Having lived at Baker and 52 since 1989, I can say without a doubt something needs to be done at this intersection.
This intersection is extremely dangerous. The speed, narrowness of the road, the fact that the intersection comes up without much warning and there are blind spots due to bushes on the south east corner. I’m surprised more people haven’t been killed at that intersection.
Today i lost a good friend and neighbor something has to be done a son a daughter and a wife have to go to sleep tonight with out a father and husband RIP Jim
Baker road and Cedar are very dangerous
This needs to happen. It is ridiculous that the community doesn't feel safe crossing this intersection due to the 20 something accidents just in the past 2 years that we have been living here.

Another intersection that desperately needs a stoplight at best, or a 4-way stop sign at least, is Cedar & Smith Roads. The turning lanes make it a more complex intersection. We need to realize that our community is no longer as rural as it was when so many of us first moved here 20 years ago! Our roads need to be adapted to this growth.
