PETITION TO PUT IN A 4-WAY STOP AT LAKE ROYAL AND BEVERLY GLEN
In order to make it safer for pedestrians crossing Lake Royal and for drivers to safely cross Lake Royal Road, we propose that the intersection be changed to a 4-way stop. By signing, I agree with this proposal.
Why is this important?
We, the residents of Valencia Reserve appreciate the efforts of the VR Reserve Safety Committee and were pleased to hear that a 4-way stop is under consideration. We urge you to vote YES to this change. Many of us have experienced close encounters with cars travelling east / west on Lake Royal Blvd that failed to yield to pedestrians who were in the middle of the intersection. It is especially dangerous at night. Street lighting is minimal and drivers have difficulty seeing pedestrians.
Also, due to the contours of the road, drivers exiting Vizcaya have difficulty seeing oncoming cars or judging the speed at which they are approaching. Collisions and injuries are inevitable.
Any inconvenience that this 4-way intersection may cause pales in consideration with the serious injuries and deaths that will occur if the intersection is not altered. Please recommend to the entire Board that this intersection be made safer with the change to a 4-way stop.
Thank you
