 Thu Jul 02, 26 4:00 pm Port needs "Cross Traffic Does Not Stop" signage! |
 |
|
On several occasions now I've been cut off by people turning left from N 2nd onto Portway Ave in Hood River as I'm proceeding east-west to get to the Event Site in Hood River. They either assume you're turning right without signaling (as too many people do), or think there's a 4-way stop.
Anyone else think this stop sign is a good candidate for a standard "Cross Traffic Does Not Stop" sign below it? Best avenue for suggesting this to the Port? |

| Not sure if it is Port or City jurisdiction, but I would make it a four way stop to slow everyone down and make it easier for pedestrians to cross and people to make their left turn. It is one of those weird HR intersections where the majority of traffic is making a 90 degree turn rather than going straight. |

| 4-way stop makes the most sense. |

I agree with the 4-way stop proposal, but just think the easiest punt is the standard cross-traffic sign. Frankly the engineer should have thought of that first, but then again I'm still wondering why Hood River put a stop sign at 8th and Cascade.
Good point on the jurisdictional mismatches... like the mis-timed traffic lights on Button Bridge Road... 🙄 |
