This intersection is offset and has no traffic control. The wide turning radii on the nod! s tle of the intersection is particularly hazardous as it creates three very close intersections in the :p ice of one. I recommend Stop signs and Yield signs be installed as shown on the attached dra•vi ng. Furthermore, I recommend the additional gravel be removed on the north side reducing this ti)v v= o perpendicular intersections. Stop signs will remain on the north and south roadways.
