As a resident in the area, we don’t want another light or stop sign one block from a light we constantly stop at. If you want to safely turn left, go to Alexandria traffic light.

Code Officer Area 4 assigned this issue to Traffic Engineer

Agree with CSResident13. Utilize one of the already lit intersections, or one that has a better left turn line of sight. They're already wanting to put roundabouts in at Barron/Decatur, and Barron/Longmire--that will take 4 lanes down to 2--which will make that end of Barron insufferable.

For an intersection to become either an all-way stop or a traffic signal it must meet a number of federally mandated warrants based on volumes and other traffic factors. We do have the intersection on our watchlist to continue monitoring. It should also be noted that we are considering signal projects at other locations on Barron near the intersection with Highway 6. I will of course conduct a site visit and ensure that all traffic safety conditions are at acceptable levels. If they are not, of course we will make changes accordingly. Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention.

This request has been forwarded to the Traffic Engineer for review. Thank you for reporting this issue.
