Traffic light out, stop signs in at Miller, 2nd Ave intersection | News, Sports, Jobs

sschulwitz@thealpenanews.com There is going to be a slight change in how motorists in Alpena will navigate the intersection at Miller Street and 2nd Avenue. During Monday’s meeting, the Alpena Municipal Council voted 5-0 to remove the traffic light, which is blinking yellow and red, and utilize stop signs on both sides of Miller Street. Council has been considering a change to the busy intersection after there were concerns expressed from All-Saints School about the risk of accidents and risks to pedestrians. Council had several options. It could leave the intersection as it is, make it a four-way stop, or make it a two-way stop. The flow of traffic should be more smooth, and less confusing than it is now, while not posing an added threat to students who walk in the area before and after school.
