LONGVIEW, Texas — The city of Longview will be removing all signal equipment at two intersections on Whaley Street starting Thursday to make them both permanent four-way stops.
According to a Facebook post from the city of Longview, a recent traffic signal warrant analysis identified the signals where Whaley Street intersects with Fredonia and Center Streets were not needed based on nine factors that were examined.
A test completed in April, in which the signals were removed and temporary stop signs were added, showed the use of four-way stops was sufficient for traffic safety, the city of Longview said.
The statement added permanent traffic signs like those throughout downtown will also be installed.
