EATON — Peggy Wescott, who has had two cars smash into her home since 1999, feels safer now that four stop signs have been installed on a trial basis at the sharp bend of Route 153 by the Inn at Crystal Lake.
The signs were placed July 7 at the intersection of Eaton Road with Ridge and Glines Hill Road as a joint effort between the town and New Hampshire Department of Transportation. They will remain there at least until the end of the summer.
having driven that corner hundreds of times i think the stop sign is a definite improvement. It isn't a hassle at all, you are already supposed to be going 15MPH on that corner so coming to a stop isn't the end of the world. I am glad that it will help local residents.
