We, the undersigned, hereby request the installation of a stop sign at the intersections of SHAWMUT AVENUE and LENOX STREET; for Southwest bound Shawmut Ave traffic. MULTIPLE accidents have occurred at this exact same intersection as witnessed by locals.

On September 7th, 2016, I almost lost my life due to lack of traffic control at the said above intersection. I will fight until something is done to help save the life/lives of other people.

Below is a post I posted on FB the day of the incident:

"Every time I go towards my mother's job her && I comment on how the intersection of Shawmut Ave && Lenox St NEEDS a stop sign . I made a full stop && this morning I was made an example of WHY that place NEEDS a stop sign ! Idk what I have to do to make a petition but I'll find a way ! By the GRACE OF GOD I made it , unfortunately my car didn't but my life somehow did && that's all that matters . I'm in terrible shape but nothing is broken && I'm alive so I'm not worried . All I kept thinking was what if someone's kid was waiting for the bus or playing over the fence I ran through ? But something HAS to be done && I'll make sure my voice is heard someway , somehow . . ."
