New Stop Signs In Consideration
Oregon Hill is once again looking at possibly changing traffic patters as a new proposal is being weighed at City Council’s Land Use, Housing, and Transportation Committee.
Ordinance 2019-147 reads:
To erect all-way stop signs at the intersections of Spring Street and South Pine Street, Spring Street and South Laurel Street, Albemarle Street and South Laurel Street, and Albemarle Street and South Cherry Street, with a painted stop line at each intersection.
This follows neighbors’ discussion with City Councilperson Parker Agelasto’s office in regard to continued concerns about traffic safety. To quickly recap, neighbors originally requested all-way stop signs at Spring and Laurel and Spring and Pine, but agreed to try changing more intersections’ stop sign direction, now that concerns have continued, all-stops are being reconsidered.

Stop Sign Update
From a Holly Street neighbor:
After contacting the police about so many vehicles running the stop sign at Oregon Hill Parkway and Pine St, they sent out an engineer to look at it. They got back to me today with a summary:
The RPD traffic division has contacted the Department of Public Works regarding the traffic issues you brought to our attention. Together, they have devised the following plan of action:
– Oregon Hill Pkwy and Pine St
o DPW plans to place a stop bar and improve the placement of the stop sign.
– Holly and Pine
o DPW will place a stop ahead sign and replace the stop sign for the eastbound movement
