Matthew Balga, 54, was struck by a car while crossing the street at 11:30 p.m on Riverside Avenue on March 4. According to police footage, Balga was wearing dark clothing and was walking outside of the street’s crosswalk. Afterward, the Town of Westport convened a meeting of the Traffic and Pedestrian Safety Task Force on.
The town presented options from no improvements to a major reconstruction with a roundabout, though the selected option will likely be somewhere in the middle.
