Four-way stop signs will be placed at Bradford Street and North Avenue in Gainesville in answer to a Sept. 19 petition by neighborhood residents. “There’s some limited sight distance issues there,” Assistant Public Works Director Chris Rotalsky said during Thursday’s Gainesville City Council work session. The new signs “will help control traffic movements to make sure that everybody is traveling through there safely,” he said.
