. . Chief: 63 Accidents In 13 Years
FROM PAGE 9 greed Germantown Road was another trouble spot along Route 113 further south of Bay Street. “Germantown Road is very dangerous,” he said. “I don’t even go that way anymore. The traffic gets on you so quick it’s scary.” Purnell urged the entire community to voice their concerns and demand changes along the dangerous stretch of Route 113. “The whole community needs to be involved,” he said. “When the whole community gets involved, good things will happen.” Purnell likened Berlin’s situation to the similar effort in Snow Hill to get a traffic signal at the intersection of Routes 113 and 12 earlier this year. The intersection was the site of several serious accidents including a few fatal accidents and SHA responded with more signage, rumble strips and ultimately J-turns. Only after constant pressure from the community did SHA agree to install a traffic signal at the deadly intersection. “People got involved and the whole community got involved,” he said. “People came out in numbers and they got their light.” In addition to physical changes to the intersection at Bay Street and all along the section of Route 113 that runs through Berlin, town officials and concerned citizens said a concerted public education effort needs to be implemented. Some suggested pedestrian safety and awareness should be taught in the schools. Berlin Police Chief Arnold Downing agreed but said the education and awareness campaign had to go beyond school lessons. Downing said there had been 63 accidents at the intersection of Route 113 and Bay Street since 2000. He said pressuring SHA to make a significant change at the intersection caused a reduction in the frequency and severity of the accidents and urged town officials and the public to push for more changes. “Those numbers were dramatically reduced when left turn signals were added there,” he said. “We need to come up with ideas, write them down, email them in and do whatever it takes.” Downing said he planned to email SHA Deputy District Engineer Ken Cimino before leaving on Tuesday night with some of the suggestions and demands. “There are things that can be done almost right away and things that will likely take some time,” he said. “In the short term, I’m going to ask to temporary message signs at either end of town on 113 saying watch out for pedestrians. Further down the road, we need to ask for a speed limit reduction, the light at Germantown Road countdown clocks and other markings at pedestrian crossings.”
