Black River Boulevard Congestion.

Gets worse with every passing year. Black River boulevard, Northward, receives more businesses, which adds to more congestion and problems. Perhaps politicians, need to actually view the traffic for themselves. I dare any of the so-called "Leaders," to sit at Walgreens, McDonalds, or Talman's Auto Service, and view the traffic early morning, afternoon, and early evening. It's obnoxiously confusing. No wonder the Chestnut street/Black River boulevard intersection has more than a few accidents. 
And with Starbucks coffee(A Snowflake hangout), and another medical center opening in the Mohawk Acres shopping mall, along with Market 32, it's going to be a living nightmare, without actual traffic control. People will be rushing to buy their seaweed-kelp flavored macchiato or whipped-cream iced caramel crap in a cup, and rushing to get to work. I doubt the "We reserve the Right to hire illegal immigrants," coffee company, has considered traffic issues. What is needed is a stoplight over the Mohawk River, at the bridge on Chestnut street. This would allow at least a little relief for those exiting Mohawk Acres, onto Chestnut Street.  Speed limits are a recommended speed, but not an official speed. ten miles per hour above the posted limit is acceptable. Many are going way beyond during the work commutes, as the Rome-Westernville road is a horror show with vehicle speeds way over the speed limit. I wonder why.  But, everyone has to be in a rush. And most don't know why they are in a rush.
