Accident At Sixty Foot Road
Station 7 (Pittsville) is responding to a Motor Vehicle Accident with rescue and rollover at the Intersection of Ocean Gateway (Route 50) and Sixty Foot Road in the Westbound Lanes.
And the thought of a traffic light for westbound 50 is way to much to consider? The intersection does not need a full East, West traffic control just the West bound so people can cross it safely or in a controlled manner. I guess the state needs to wait for a certain death count to implement a control device.
I'm sorry, but I have no idea what these people are doing to get hit so many times here! It's so truly amazing! Maybe someone should open up a fuel/ convenience store on the Eastbound side, as there are NONE between Salisbury and West OC?
I cross that intersection all the time with no issues or troubles.
Close the crossover? From 50 east to left on 60 foot rd which leads to Delaware? SMH Very busy road. People are just stupid at times and try and beat west bound rt 50 cars. And things will get worse when they put the light in. More people will turn before the light onto Main St Ext. What happens when accidents start happening there?
Won't be so busy when crossover closed and won't be accidents there but I'm no civil engineer. I did stay at a holiday inn express and didn't get in an accident turning left. I thought PA drivers were bad. More accidents now that beach season is over versus in the summer.
Some of the American public are too stupid to turn lights on at dusk. That doesn't help, but there are still too many events in daylight as well. Somebody smarter than me needs to figure this out and soon. I still can't believe the limit hasn't been lowered with giant flashing warning signs. The Mayor of Berlin is the spokesman for SHA, step up G!
please, someone explain to me how these accidents occur. i frequent that intersection on a regular basis, travel in all directions, and am unsure how most of these accidents happen?

That's every day at that intersection.

Just close the cross over. They have done it at other spots on 50.

It is NOT the intersection. It IS the non-driving morons who use(?) the intersection.
