Thanks to Collin for the photo and this report from the east end of the Roxbury corridor: “Olson Place and Cambridge, 1-car accident blocking 1 lane going up the hill. No injuries but will need a tow truck.”

Whoever did the last lugnuts tightening has some explaining to do and also using a torque wrench for a check, double check method.

When the new houses there on the curve are occupied that is going to be a challenge for the cars to get exit the property and get into the traffic on Olsen Place….almost seems like they will need a traffic light

Not any more than it is for the ones across the street. It’s a mess for sure, but the people buying the houses will know what they’re in for.

Another hot spot for accidents 8th sw an roxbury. They should make it a no left turn inner section. At least during high traffic hours. There’s a left off Olsen with a signal and turn lane just west an a left with turn lane and signal east on roxbury at 14th av sw.

Sorry, comment time is over.
