It appears state transportation officials will not back up a statement to remove a crosswalk near a curve on Camp Arrowhead Road made in August by former Delaware Department of Transportation Secretary Jennifer Cohan.
According to C.R. McLeod, director of communications, DelDOT engineers have determined that the project would include more than removing striping on the roadway. “We’d have to remove the shared-use paths – constructed by the developer – on both sides of the road to prevent people from using the crossing, otherwise crossings would still be attempted,” he said.
McLeod said the developer will remove some trees that contribute to sight issues, and DelDOT will install rapid-flash beacons to warn approaching vehicles of the crosswalk.
