Penn Dot needs to plane down and grade the hill at this location so traffic in each direction can see each other. Cars speed down Valley Forge Rd. and the Upper Merion Police do nothing. Just this week another bad accident. This on a road with a school no less. What does someone need to die before this is corrected???

bb - agreed there isn't an issue if people do the speed limit. But if you travel that road everyday as you say you know there is an issue. Go to Upper Merion Twp. & Penn Dot and look up about the number of accidents at this location. This is a location with a school and each day many children have travel this route. I live here. I don't want un-safe conditions for myself and my family.
Now the township wants to add a Community Center that will most likely add to the problem. Supervisors PLEASE DO NOT PUT THE ENTRANCE TO THE PROPOSED COMMUNITY CENTER ON VALLEY FORGE ROAD.

West Valley Forge Rd is a Race Track! Cars & Trucks speed in excess of 50 mph near the church on the curve.
When will UMPD do something about this?

Installing a traffic light at that intersection may help I HOPE. However, why has there been so many accidents at this location? Why hasn't Upper Merion Twp or PennDot addressed this dangerous intersection?
The problem is the line of sight cars have in each direction on Valley Forge Road. The hill needs to be planed down so that traffic can see each other.
My fear is that people will attempt to beat the proposed light and speed even worse then what they are now. No traffic study can be done to give a true eval on what the Community Ctr will mean in terms of traffic.
