The intersection makes making a right hand turn west bound onto East Ridgewood Avenue extremely dangerous . The reader points out that after 4pm on weekdays and on weekends when you can right on red , the view is very restricted and a driver or cyclist can not see on coming westbound traffic approaching intersection.
A simple change of ,to “No Right on Red” at all times would solve the problem.
I’d like to see enforcement requiring the ordinance about bushes on corners.
Way too many blind spots and the inconsiderate homeowners do nothing without a summons issued.
We need an email address to send these and other ordinance violations to, like the ‘reportwater’ email
I think it’s fine the way it is. Outside of school hours it’s perfectly safe to make a right on red at that intersection. Especially since westbound traffic has a delayed green. I’m a cyclist btw.
That intersection (Ridgewood Ave and Van Dien) is bad news during the school day.
The car wash cheerleaders on Saturday don’t help either.
Big problems in the CBD, the police can’t control the speed limit in the c b d. That’s why you see down the shore they are posting 15 and 20 mph zones
Cut the bushes!
The northeast corner is the one with the bush problem. There are many much worse, southwest corner of glen and pleasant, north east and west corners of van dien and spring, southeast corner monroe and ridgewood. Just a few that have a lot of kids (hope we can call them kids).
