Traffic Light Planned for New Hampshire Avenue to Ease Stadium Area Traffic

The following is an ‘Ask The Mayor’ question submitted to TLS, and the Mayor’s response. Email your questions for the Mayor to [email protected].

Question:

I work in the industrial park and travel on New Hampshire to get home. When there is a game around 5:00 which is rush hour, one lane gets closed heading south so people can turn into the game area. Is there a way to put up a light there so we can avoid lane closures? Can the Blue Claws management make the games later so it doesn’t interfere with rush hour?

Thank you!

Response from Mayor Coles:

Good morning

The county has plans to install a traffic light at that intersection. It is being advertised, but completion will not be until next year.

Thanks

Ray
