Description

At the intersection of Pats Branch Drive (city maintained) and Ebenezer Church Road (state maintained, as I understand it), there is a worsening sight-line issue where traffic traveling at a high speed on Ebenezer cannot be seen until one pulls onto Ebenezer from Pats Branch. The blind spot is in both directions, but particularly bad when attempting to see right and turn left from Pats Branch onto Ebenezer. There are a number of fast-growing evergreen/cypress trees on homeowner properties (within city limits) that are causing the problem and desperately need to be trimmed to manage this safety issue. I know there have been a few collisions at this intersection, but probably not enough to attract the city's attention like a major highway. A number of school buses also attempt to navigate this dangerous intersection daily. Hoping the city will investigate and send out a tree trimmer. Ideally, a three-way stop would be installed, but since Ebenezer is state-maintained, the city may not have the ability to do so.
