Hi
With the increasing traffic problems in Htfd. & the change in traffic flow, maybe it's time we request more comprehensive "traffic calming" measures from the City. This intersection is just one of many, but seems especially awkward & dangerous. The problems on nearby Stone Street may be a consequence of this intersection being so difficult. I grew up on Newfield Ave. & remember all the truck traffic from the quarries & businesses adjoining the rail tracks. It never seemed to be a problem as the road is ample & long (although the closing of Overlook Terrace may now be an issue). Anyway, maybe fixing the traffic flow problems here could help all around the area (including the Charter Oak Marketplace - which generates hefty taxes for the city). Let's contact our council members & the mayor.
