Stop Sign Authorized In Peters Township

Often times with improvements come new problems. That is what Peters Township Council addressed with a new stop sign. Longvue Drive had been a substandard road in the township for many years. This year the road was totally reengineered for width, cul de sac installation and storm drain improvements that brought the road up to current township standards. With those improvements, speed and sight distance issues presented themselves. Council adopted an ordinance creating a three way stop on Longvue Drive with its intersection with Jomat Drive because of limited sight distance. Public comment also spoke of speeding that is now occurring on the road since the improvement. Council will also look into installing speed limit signs.
