Borough Wants Input on Potential Changes to Traffic Circle

Borough wants residents to weigh in on whether traffic signal should be installed.

Would the intersection of Franklin Lake Road and High Mountain Road be easier to navigate without traffic circle there?

That's the question the borough of Franklin Lakes is asking residents to weight in on in an online survey.

According to the borough website, concerns have been raised about safety issues at the circle for drivers, pedestrians and cyclists crossing the busy intersection. The question the survey asks is:

Should the traffic 'Circle' at the intersection of Franklin Lake Road and High Mountain Road be removed, with a traffic signal installed in its place, to improve the safety of this intersection for motorists, bicyclists, and pedestrians?

You can let the borough know what you think here, and share your opinion with Patch in the comments.
