  • I have seen cars on winter nights skid right through the westbound Hollow Rd stop sign -- a 4-way stop is a necessity at that intersection.

  • I strongly support putting a four-way stop-sign at the intersection of Centre/Hollow/Clinton Hollow Roads. I will never forget the horrible night, nearly twenty-five years ago, when my high school friend's father, Jack Maser, died after his car was struck in an accident at that dangerous intersection. Jack left behind a wife, four children and many, many friends in Clinton Corners and Millbrook. We were all completely devastated by the loss of such a warm, decent, caring and amusingly irreverent person. What do I mean by amusingly irreverent? Well, as one example, I remember the life-sized poster of himself he hung as a reminder on the back of the door at the foot of the stairs where his two teen-aged sons had their bedrooms. It read, Turn out the *##!* lights! If Jack could send a message from beyond, maybe he would say, Put up the *##!* stop signs! Please do so, before others have to experience the kind of grief and loss Jacks family and friends had to live through.

  • Many years ago my father had an accident at this intersection. The head injury he sustained was the locus of his fatal stroke 15 years later. Indirectly, that intersection caused his death. Personally, I know I'll hate to have to stop there every time I'm driving south or north, but we're all too much in a hurry, anyway.

  • Four-way stop signs are the most sensible next step. We use this intersection frequently as well as the one to the north at Center Rd & Fiddlers Bridge which has four-way stop signs. It is our experience that drivers obey the four-way stop signs and are polite to fellow drivers when several are at the intersection. No flashing lights please!

  • As 40-year residents of Clinton, we care about safety on its roads but also about appropriate signage to facilitate that safety. We think a 4-way stop sign is adequate for this intersection and request a public hearing to air both sides.

  • A four way stop sign will improve safety at this intersection & have a calming effect on traffic more than a flashing light while maintaining the historic nature of the hamlet and the rural nature of the town.

  • As a real estate agent, I do a lot of driving in the northern half of the county and drive through this intersection fairly often. You really have to double check that someone isn't speeding along going north or south through the intersection. I have had a couple of close calls here and think a four- way stop would be an excellent idea.

  • I agree with the premise of this petition. When entering this intersection from Hollow Rd (east or west), you cannot see traffic coming south on Centre Rd. I've had numerous close encounters as I've prepared to cross Centre Rd.

  • The problem with the intersection is primarily high speed southbound Centre Road traffic. The bend in Centre Road, just north of Hollow, combined with the 50+mph southbound traffic make ANY crossing of Centre at Hollow dangerous. I cross this intersection 4 times daily, taking my kids to school, and am always extremely cautious, and even then southbound cars have caused a couple of close calls. A 4-way stop is the ONLY way to slow down the southbound Centre Road cars, and address this hazardous situation. We have a 4-way stop at Fiddler's Bridge and Centre. Put another one at Center and Hollow.

  • Let's have a four-way stop at the intersection of Hollow and Center road rather than a blinking light. These are our streets, not highways. They need to be preserved as they are. Almost every time a highway engineer plans a so-called improvement, to move traffic faster for people passing through, he destroys the quality of life for local residents.

  • I am against the placement of a blinking light at Centre/Hollow/Clinton Hollow roads. It destroys the beauty of the Clinton Hollow hamlet. It brings our town one step closer to becoming urbanized. And, the residents in the area will be greatly disturbed by the constant blinking lights during the night time hours. I don't know but I do not believe blinking lights are effective. But, by example, the blinking light on Rt 9 by Bard College does not slow traffic down through that intersection. Drivers, myself included, seem to drive at the same speed through that intersection. The problem with this intersection is there isn't a clear line of sight for the drivers waiting at the current Hollow Road stop signs. I want to see a 4 way stop placed at this intersection. It seems the most economical and least invasive way to solve this problem.

  • A 4-way stop sign would be a far more effective solution to the problem. The only effect a blinking light will have is to detract from the beauty of the area and create an eyesore - especially for the local residents. Why not also designate CR18 as a 45MPH road?

  • A blinker light is completely unnecessary when four separate stop signs carry the same impact and legal authority. I do NOT want the blinker light! It will disrupt the landscape and be a waste of taxpayers' money.

  • Expensive and ineffective blinking light will not reduce the accidents at this intersection. It will however disturb the nightly rest of all those who live nearby. A 4 way stop sign makes more sense for less cents.

  • I don't understand why there has not been two-way communication between the County Highway Dept. and the citizens of Clinton. On the one hand, officials say they want citizens to be involved in preserving the character of their communities; on the other, when we ask for 4-way stop signs on Centre Road at the intersection with Hollow Rd. instead of a blinking light, there seems to be a condescending, silent, "we know best" response from the County. Please respond to the people of Clinton and please increase safety at the 18/14 intersection by installing 4-way stop signs and warning signs. Thank you.

  • Only a four-way stop sign will ensure that every vehicle will stop at the intersection. A blinking light is needlessly expensive and not as effective! Now that the Taconic Parkway is less accessible, Centre Road is being used as a north/south highway. The only safe solution is a four-way stop at this intersection.
