Elmhurst May Reverse Stop Sign Decision

K.Wilson21 min ago

In a memo this week, Ward 2 aldermen Jacob Hill and Karen Sienko said the study did not take into account a nearby school bus stop.

"Since the change was put into effect, aldermen and city staff have been alerted to the fact that there are numerous schoolchildren picked up by school buses at this intersection, which lacks sidewalks," the aldermen said.

During the winter, children are forced to wait at times on the plowed street, Hill and Sienko said.

"Since this is also a cut-through area for vehicular traffic, the safety issue appears to be compounded," the aldermen said.
