Enhanced Safety Measures for Local Students at Busy Intersection
Mountain Home, ID – In a significant move to bolster pedestrian safety, the intersection of East Jackson Street and South 5th East Street has undergone a transformative upgrade, ensuring a safer passage for students from Hacker Middle School, Bennett Mountain High School, and other local educational institutions.
The previous stationary crosswalk signs have been replaced with state-of-the-art rectangular rapid flashing beacons, mirroring those already successfully implemented in the downtown corridor. This upgrade aims to catch the attention of drivers, alerting them to the presence of pedestrians, particularly students crossing the busy intersection.
Local officials and school representatives have expressed their enthusiasm for the improvements, emphasizing the importance of safety for young commuters. "This enhancement not only makes our streets safer but also encourages students to walk or bike to school, promoting a healthier lifestyle," said a spokesperson from the Mountain Home School District.
The project, which has been in the works for several months, reflects the community’s commitment to prioritizing the safety of its youth. With the new beacons now operational, students and parents alike can feel more secure as they navigate their daily routes.
