- Staff · June 10, 2025After completing research on this intersection, there has been one crash in the last five years at this location during a rain event. Although this a high traffic and pedestrian area, adding additional stop signs are not warranted at this time. Speed limit signs will be added in both directions of 23rd St. near this intersection.
