We have had 13 traffic accidents in 2021. We have had 3 traffic accidents, so far, in 2022. On March 22, 2022, our community experienced the most tragic accident to date. This tragic accident resulted in the loss of life from some of the most vulnerable in our society, our youth. Our community remains in mourning. To add to the traffic issue, we have two churches, multiple community residents, and their guests/delivery services/general services, all trying to access Crestwood Blvd. Our community demands something be done to help minimize the danger of this intersection. A recent, less than two-week to conclude, traffic study reported that a traffic signal was not needed at this intersection. Our community is demanding that a traffic signal be installed to help calm traffic at this dangerous intersection. How many more lives need to be lost before something is done to calm traffic in this area?

We need a light at this intersection!! I have to turn into the estate at least four times a week I'll behalf of my grandchildren and there isn't even a turning lane into this development! No light no turning lane… You better pray the driver behind you is not on his phone ! Wake up Palm Beach County. !!

As a single mother with a child that lives in the apartments there. I fully support a traffic light as people drive to fast down this road and it’s the 9 accident I’ve personally witnessed in the 10months I’ve lived here!

A dangerous left turn into Crest Wood Blvd. If not a traffic light, at least 4 way stop signs must be installed. As it is, trying to find an opening to jump onto the other side, among other things, we completely tend to miss the pedestrians and cyclists crossing in front.

Leaving The Estates of Royal Palm Beach to make a left turn onto Cresteood, I find it nerve racking and dangerous because I cannot fully see oncoming traffic coming north on crest wood. There needs to be a traffic light at that intersection.

How come we have to petition for safety when the number of incidents are high. Put the signal light up already
