West Sacramento community workshop discusses safety improvements along Cummins Way ...Middle East

News by : (CBS sacramento) -

It's a constant worry for people who live along the T-intersection at Cummins Way and 6th Street in West Sacramento where drivers have to abruptly turn left or right. 

Collisions have also destroyed several parked cars, broken a utility pole, and cracked the foundation of one home. The family who lives in that home no longer lets their young son sleep in the front bedroom due to the danger. 

Homeowners have been calling on the city to make changes for years. Now city officials are meeting with neighbors and unveiling new crash mitigation measures. 

"Just to provide more of a visual definition to the motorists, 'Hey, you know there's a turn coming up and you want to slow down,' that has been proven to be a very effective deterrent," Wong said. 

"It's a start," resident Arnold Barajas said. 

"It wouldn't necessarily stop a car in its tracks but would definitely serve as a deterrent and so I think that it would be really helpful," Ladd said. 

City officials say construction on the speed bumps and bollards will begin this summer and the $125,000 project should be completed by the end of the year.
