The sign that tells you traffic is permitted to pass on either side or a traffic island is a two-way traffic sign.
Importance of Installing a Traffic Signal
Installing a traffic signal at the intersection of Clay Street and Eagle Avenue was crucial for several reasons. First, pedestrian safety was at risk, as students and other pedestrians had to navigate through traffic to cross the street. A traffic signal now allows them to cross at designated times, enhancing safety. Second, the signal effectively slows down vehicles that previously sped through the intersection, ignoring speed limits. Finally, the sharp increase in traffic from a new manufacturing plant and expanding businesses, coupled with changes in traffic routing for events, justified the need for better traffic management. The alarming rate of accidents, including one fatal incident, underscored the urgency of this safety measure.
