**UPDATE** Take down the 4-way stop @ Lawyers/Mill Grove crossing
Thank you so much for taking the time to visit and respond to this petition! ***THEY ARE REMOVING THE STOP SIGNS!!! As stated below they will be removing the stops signs Saturday, April 22nd, 2017.
Here is the reponse being forwarded to all concerned individuals:
"We are aware of the issues created by the installation of this multiway stop. We received safety funds to build a roundabout at this intersection but due to the length of time it takes to design a roundabout, purchase ROW, have utility relocated and based on our current work load with other already funded safety projects we will not be able to build this roundabout until 2020. Because of this we were asked to do something to make the intersection safer before the roundabout could be built. We decided on a multiway stop due to how quickly we could get one installed. We did look at and evaluate the traffic volumes but did not expect to see anything like what is occurring out there today to happen. Based on what we are seeing happen we are going to be removing the stop signs on Lawyers Rd tomorrow."
