Commissioner of Public Services Ricardo Morales told the Traffic Commission on Wednesday the right way to fix it is to change the geometry of Valentine Road rather than installing signage or markings because the road gives drivers space to travel at high speeds. That would be my preferred option, in a sense preventing drivers from traveling at those higher speeds rather than counting on the drivers being able to see the signs or the lines in the road and counting on them to slow down, he said. One solution could be to make the intersection a mini-roundabout to deter speeding drivers approaching the intersection. Speeds would be reduced to about 20 mph through the roundabout as vehicles go through unimpeded.
