NYSDOT adding light at Tivoli intersection

Mar 23, 2014 12:03 am
New York State Department of Transportation Commissioner Joan McDonald announced March 21 that the DOT will install a four-way overhead flashing beacon at the interesection of Route 9G and Broadway/West Kerley Corners Road (Dutchess County Route 78) in Tivoli, after several recent fatal accidents. Since 2009, there have been oversized stop signs and stop ahead signs on the Broadway and West Kerley Corners Road approaches, which reduced by crashes by 80 percent, according to McDonald's press release. But two Bard College students were killed by a hit-and-run car at the intersection in late January, and after Brandon M. O’Connell, 21, of Hudson died March 3 as a result of a car accident there, Tivoli Mayor Bryan Cranna called for upgrades. Work begins next week to survey the intersection, with the new flashing beacon promised by Memorial Day.
