    Bear Creek Road in Dupont at the connecting area with Suscon Road in Pittston Township.
    Vascar speed detection is needed in this extremely busy traffic area as daily unsafe speeding drivers exit both industrial parks.
    Pittston Township has installed this Vascar system further up Suscon Road, above and beyond the industrial parks areas, where only the minimum amount of mostly local traffic travels.
    The majority of all traffic, including speeding traffic, occurs with drivers exiting both industrial parks and traveling down the hill throughout the connecting area of Bear Creek Road and Suscon Road.
    This particular area is overloaded and dangerous for many traffic related reasons, both passenger cars and trucks alike.
    Please help and thank you.

    From the intersection of Old Boston Road, Jenkins Township, traveling North on Route 315, a buffer is needed for the traffic turning onto Old Boston Road.
    The traffic waiting to turn from 315 onto Old Boston Road is facing oncoming traffic that is traveling within a few inches of them and at excessive speed.
    The area from Old Boston Road to Pazzo’s restaurant needs to be repainted to create a buffer
    Also within the same area south bound traffic on 315 have no over head visual signs at the Old Boston Road Intersection that the left lane is left turn only.
    This overhead signage is present at the next intersection moving south.
    When traffic is backed up on Route 81, north or southbound Route 315 is used as an expressway and motorists are speeding, and are not familiar with the roadways.
    Also the cross walk signal was damaged by a tractor trailer at the same intersection.
    Please contact me for an on site inspection. I am available mostly every day,
    I am forwarding this safety issue to Representative James Haddock and Senator Martin Flynn

    Concrete divider is a hazard! Not clearly marked, no lines on the road to indicate it there until you suddenly come upon if unfamiliar with this road heading south. The divider even seems misaligned with the natural driving path.

    This area has an abundance of speeding vehicles. We need speed detection devices on the poles! This area is absolutely dangerous for anyone visiting the many businesses nearby.

    This area, Union street, has a significant issue with speeding traffic. This is a 25mph area and it's nothing but a racing drag strip. We need speed detectors on these poles! As well as more enforcement before someone gets seriously hurt!

    The pedestrian crosswalks at the intersection of South Franklin and West South Streets are badly worn and should be re-striped. Because of high pedestrian traffic throughout downtown Wilkes-Barre, all intersections should have properly designed crosswalks.

    Cars going straight onto the bridge need to adjust slightly to stay in their lanes. many often don't, or choose to lane shift in the intersection.

    At this intersection heavy weeds and debris have filled handicap ramp sidewalks that were installed. No one maintains weeds and silt that accumulates in these crosswalks
