动物碰撞事故是诺福克十字路口的首要原因;计划于2028年和2030年建造环路,以改善安全。 Animal crashes are top cause at Norfolk intersections; roundabouts planned for 2028 and 2030 to improve safety.

Norfolk工作人员报告说,圣约翰路与蓝线路和Cockshutt路交汇处的交通仍然可以接受,下午高峰期间的交通只稍有延误。 Norfolk staff report that traffic at St. John’s Road intersections with Blueline and Cockshutt roads remains acceptable with only minor delays during afternoon peaks. 对8.5年的坠机数据进行的一项研究发现,与动物有关的事故是造成事故的主要原因 -- -- 蓝线为36%,Cockshutt为49% -- -- 其次是未能出手和不小心驾驶。 A study of 8.5 years of crash data found animal-related incidents were the leading cause—36% at Blueline, 49% at Cockshutt—followed by failure to yield and inattentive driving. 官员警告说,在不需要的地方安装交通信号可能会使交通流量恶化,增加司机的挫折感,而不会减少撞车事故。 Officials warn that installing traffic signals where not needed could worsen traffic flow, increase driver frustration, and not reduce crashes. 虽然一些理事会成员以安全和个人承诺为由反对变革,但工作人员维持现有条件是安全的。 While some council members oppose changes, citing safety and personal commitments, staff maintain current conditions are safe. 今后的计划包括定于2028年和2030年在两个地点建造圆环路,每个地点估计为330万美元,因为事实证明,与信号相比,速度和严重碰撞会降低。 Future plans include building roundabouts at both sites—estimated at $3.3 million each—scheduled for 2028 and 2030, as they are proven to reduce speeds and severe collisions compared to signals.
