Overview: The Rochester City Council’s recent meeting was dominated by discussions over the proposed redesign of the intersection at Broadway Avenue and Trunk Highway 14. The council ultimately passed a motion to approve the project, despite extensive public commentary and council debate over safety concerns for pedestrians and cyclists. The redesign, which includes changes such as the addition of dual left turn lanes, aims to improve traffic flow but has raised significant apprehension about its impact on pedestrian safety and the overall character of the area.
