Please sign to have the Town of Exeter look to fix the intersection by Pine Street/Linden Street (Epoch/Exeter Inn/St Micheals/TUCK/YMCA). We need a safer traffic flow for the residents, neighbors, visitors, businesses, schools, and church!
A Roundabout has been suggested with the examples of the towns of Rye using one at Rte 1/1A, Newburyport in front of Maudsley State Park, and Bedford at Meetinghouse Road/MCC having success with the Roundabout to solve confusion and driving issues in the area.
A Roundabout by Pine Street/Linden Street will be a positive help to the local businesses, church, academic, residential and recreational areas of the town. It effects all ages as The TUCK center houses daycare to Adult Ed classes, the Y has offerings to all ages, the fields are used by multi -sports and ages, Voting takes place, we encourage business at the Exeter Inn and Epoch, and St. Michaels Church is a beloved church for many in the community.
No more confusion or cutting thru Gill Street! A roundabout solves the traffic flow!

The reach of this petition has grown significantly and confirms that traffic safety at the Pine Street and Linden Street intersection is a priority for many. This momentum provides a strong foundation as we prepare to present our case to the Town of Exeter.

A roundabout would make for a much safer intersection. And a roundabout doesn't need a huge amount of space, the one in Rye on 1A is pretty small, think it would be a great idea.
I also do my best to avoid this intersection. It does need a redesign, but hard to imagine that a roundabout would fit/work. I am signing this for a redesign.
I'm signing this because I agree it's a hazard that should be addressed, but coming from the UK, I assure you that a roundabout would be a complete nightmare. There is too much traffic for that (particularly compared to the corner you are referring to in Rye). It would back up on Front Street to the train tracks causing all sorts of new problems. Also, it would be difficult for the buses to come in and out of the Lincoln Street extension. Many people don't know how to navigate a roundabout in this country. Please look into squaring things off and adding a traffic light instead!
This has increasingly become a dangerous intersection. With the addition of the YMCA the traffic flow to this intersection has become very busy. I hope there is a resolution to make the flow safer before someone becomes hurt in a serious accident.
This is a very dangerous intersection that could really benefit from a redesign.
Strongly support redesign ASAP
Yes! It's about time!

This intersection is so dangerous. Please address... There are 100's of kids and parents who use the Linden Street fields for all kinds of sports practices & games and many travel through this dangerous intersection. Thanks for all the efforts to address this and make sure it is safe.
