To Charles - How can you say a stop light is not necessary? It's not about people stopping at the stop sign, it's about getting across the four lanes with traffic going 65 plus mph!!! That's not even including the middle section. So what are they going to do when school starts and a bus can't set there cause it's longer then that middle section, how many innocent lives will be taken then?!?
