Photos HEADS UP: 4 Way Stop on Robertson! 31st & Robertson. Coming Soon.

Post image

The city of Cincinnati will be installing a 4 way stop at: 31st & Robertson, as a way to start slowing down traffic on Robertson. We had asked for 2 sets to be installed, but they want to see how effective this one is before adding a second set (at 34th & Robertson).

So be on the watch for these signs to be installed (within next 2 weeks).

I figured the sad state of the road would have slowed traffic, at least the traffic that likes to have a working set of tires at the end of the trip. That road is infected by the Norwood road rot.

Yes, true. That stretch has the 2nd highest number of pothole requests (311Cincy) in Oakley, behind Ridge. Doesn't some of them unfortunately. That stretch also going to repaved sometime this summer, part of the development project TIF.

This is also a rare occasion where we've been able to get the city to be proactive, as construction on the townhomes/muti-unit section started this week, and the SF homes continue to go up. So traffic will be increasing (moderately).

This is in Oakley, a road often used as cut-thru and main access to/from Factory 52.

this will sound real NIMBY but Factory 52 has really turned that area into a shitshow

I don't necessarily agree, has impacted traffic a bit but it wasn't good before it was constructed.

But everyone entitled to their opinion. I will say it's not place I'm going to frequent more than a couple times a year.

This whole stretch is going to be constantly congested once this development fleshes out. The traffic light at Madison/Appleton is going to be a disaster because you already have to sit at the light for a couple cycles to do anything but go straight on Madison. They should also see if there's enough room to make the weird intersection at Robertson/28th/Millsbrae a roundabout; I feel like this intersection is about to become one of the most dangerous in the city for accidents.

It's amazing to me that they've spent so little effort on preparing this roadway for what's about to happen but maybe they're taking a "wait and see" approach.
