Please do away with the merge lane just before the Mary Snow School Zone. There is a traffic light at the corner of Broadway and the entrance of Center St that people race to cut each other off so they can get through the light quicker. There are road rage issues at times and it's just before the 15 mph school zone. I'm surprised a child has not been injured or worse yet, killed.

Hi kdoyer,
I understand your frustration. Different cities have different levels of engagement, and different types of issues that they address through SeeClickFix. Have you tried creating watch areas for some of the officials in your area?

I am not familiar with creating a watch area. Can you advise me? Thank you for responding.

Sad thing to say but what type of excuse will the city have when one of these days you get some idiot racing up this short, confusingly marked, yet unnecessary merge lane when children are out crossing the street and they get hit and worse case, killed?
See Click Fix is effective in some towns and cities...Bangor is not one of them, so when a child gets injured or killed crossing the road because the merge lane has to end just feet prior to the school zone start, then complain about the merge lane, then the city "might" listen and do something about it then...Bangor is not very proactive.
