Somebody Do Something: Traffic pandemonium near Nazareth Area Middle School
http://www.lehighvalleylive.com/nazareth/index.ssf/2012/04/somebody_do_something_traffic.html
FROM THE EXPRESS TIMES
It happens like clockwork at the beginning of the school day and at the end, a reader says.
Traffic bogs down near the Nazareth Area Middle School campus at the intersection of Route 191, Schoeneck Avenue and Friedenstahl Road in Upper Nazareth Township.
"The township, school district and PennDOT have been disagreeing about this spot for a few years now," says skinnymama12. "There is money in escrow somewhere for this, but the township seems to be holding this up."
This intersection is this week's focus of Somebody Do Something.
"There have been multiple fender benders and more serious accidents there," says skinnymama12. "It is treacherous in the morning and afternoon at school drop-off and pick-up times."
