Description
Please assess the necessity of keeping both Kensington Ave and Patterson Ave legs of this triangle intersection. There are visibility and traffic pattern issues daily (especially rush hour) particularly traffic going west on Kensington and merging across oncoming traffic onto westbound Patterson, resulting in frequent near-misses and fender benders at this location. Suggest closing this small Kensington Ave end segment to vehicles & leaving Patterson/Thompson intersection only.
