The Village of Ada Council held a special meeting of the whole at Community Health Profesionals on June 13 to give residents an opportunity to ask questions and provide feedback on proposals to improve safety at the intersection of Main St. and Buckeye Ave.
Council is considering whether to turn the two blocks of Buckeye adjacent to Main into a one-way eastbound street and whether to create angle parking on the south side of Buckeye. Additional meetings on this subject are anticipated.
From 6:30-8:30 p.m. on Tuesday, June 13 at Community Health Professionals Building, 1200 S. Main St., the Village of Ada will hold a special council and public meeting to discuss proposed safety improvements for the intersection of Buckeye Ave. and Main Street.
The proposal includes designating and posting signs for one-way traffic on Buckeye Ave. in a two-block area traveling east from Gilbert St. to Johnson St. and creating angle parking. This meeting will be held for the purpose of discussion and receiving public input. The public is welcomed and encouraged to attend.
The meeting will include information from the Ada Police Department, traffic study information from Choice One Engineering and estimated cost for the project. Preliminary information shows that there are 32 conflict points that create frequent difficulties for drivers and pedestrians at this location. Crash information has not been cited as the motivating factor in this proposal.
