Mayor Kenneth Edwards is seeking a study of Greenwood Traffic lights from Joe Shipman, District Engineer for the Arkansas Highway and Transportation Dept. It was suggested that a study might be conducted on the flow of traffic through town on Hwy 10 East and Hwy 10 Spur West to Hwy 71. The feeling is that the signaling might be adjusted to smooth the flow of traffic through town on mornings during the school year.
Mayor Edwards stated that he is currently seeking a bypass that would get drivers from the east side of town out to Hwy 71 along a southern route, but this study might provide some relief in the mean time.
Mr. Shipman responded back to Mr. Edwards stating that he has asked the department traffic investigators to review the signal timing and coordination along the highway to determine if modifications are necessary to improve the traffic flow.
