Very crazy August 1, 2021 12:14 pm At 12:14 pm

Omg why fix what’s not broken?
Pass multiple times a day all seems fine someone must have an inordinate amount of leverage to pull that off

What?! Might want to have lots of signs around. Who does that mod block?

What? Why?
Who approved this?

I pass by there twice a day for drop off/pickup.
Cars are driving 50-60 miles/hour at times.
In my opinion I believe they fixed what seemed to be broken..
There were no crosswalks or anything. Now it looks like a safe intersection.
Better safe than sorry.

I agree with Rosenberg 100%.

I live on Albert and they should add to all intersections.

Cars fly down the block at speeds exceeding 50 MPH.

There are many kids all over and it was not safe.

This is a residential area and the negative reviews are probably the people who fly down the block and are upset.

Whomever decision this was thumbs up it is definitely safer then before.

Complainers will always complain. Cheer up enjoy life and drive safe.

Worry about the main roads..we need a Left turning signal at pine & RT 9 and a light that’s works at Massachusetts & Prospect

If you think this stop sign was not needed, then you are probably the guy that drives from Pine to Oak (or vice-versa) 70mph blowing by kids with no regards for their safety and only care about your time which is worthless if you kill a kid.
Live on the block and you won’t complain. Need to get to a wedding and you’re late, you’d hate this. Guess what, nobody cares about your opinion then. Be smart, be safe, and care about others.

I hope the 3 way stop sign doesn’t lead to a 3 way accident but in Lakewood, you never know.

They should put stop signs and speed bumps at every intersection.

New Hampshire is available for anyone needing to get somewhere quickly.

They should put concrete barriers and armed guards at every intersection in Lakewood. Seriously?

Read Street is not the issue, It never was. Never ever was there an accident there. The issue is two blocks over on Bellinger Street and Albert ave. There had bin there several dozen accidents in the last three years since the Twp opened the street, and is a very dangerous intersection.

They should put the number of Heshy’s towing service in neon lights at every Lakewood intersection. Shema Yisrael.

@dovid
There’s been more than 3 accidents at the intersection of Albert and Read in the past 12 months that I know of personally. Meaning, these are friends/mutual friends that have gotten involved in accidents there. The total number I’m sure is much more than that.
True, bellinger is also a big big issue and should definitely be next on the list.
