The Eatontown Borough Council has adopted an ordinance which creates a four-way stop at the intersection of Clinton Avenue and South Street. Previously, the intersection had one stop sign on the eastern Clinton Avenue side.
The four-way intersection is in a residential neighborhood and both streets are connected to Route 35. The eastern Clinton Avenue side with the original stop sign is accessed through a traffic light on the state highway.
A resolution passed by the council states the action will enhance the safety of the intersection.
Prior to the ordinance’s adoption, Daniel Guthrie, a retired captain with the Eatontown Police Department, said he did not believe a four-way stop would increase safety at the intersection.
