ENGEL ANNOUNCES TRAFFIC LIGHT FOR BRONXWOOD AVE. AND E. 221st STREET
03/11/11Washington, DC -- Congressman Eliot Engel announced that a traffic light will be installed at Bronxwood Avenue and East 221st Street. He said the City Department of Transportation performed a study of the traffic patterns in the area and concluded a traffic light was necessary.
Rep. Engel said, “Bronxwood Avenue is highly travelled and the intersection is near a playground. I want to thank the Department of Transportation for responding to the needs of this area. In the past few years the Department installed a traffic light at Bronxwood Avenue and East 226th Street, also in the Williamsbridge area, and Bronx Boulevard and East 236th Street in Wakefield.”
The Transportation Department said it expects to have the traffic light installed by June 30th.
