Four-Way Stop Coming to US 280 and SR 135 Intersection
HIGGSTON, GA - Due to a high frequency of accidents and collisions, the Georgia Department of Transportation has chosen to convert the current two-way stop at the intersection of US 280/State Route (SR) 30 and SR 15/135 in Montgomery County to an all-way stop starting Monday, November 26, if weather permits.
Leading up to the switch, the Georgia DOT will complete the following high priority work:
- SR 30: installation of rumble strips, stop ahead signage, and stop bar;
- SR 135 and 30: installation of “All Way” plate on the bottom of stop signs.
Message boards will be placed on both approaches of US 280 to notify the general public about the brand new all-stop condition. These boards should remain for several weeks after the switch, as motorists adjust to the different operation. GDOT sign and maintenance teams will be in the roadway leading up to the official all-way stop launch executing the above activities.
The Department asks all citizens that travel this area to be alert to changing operational conditions.
Georgia Department of Transportation is committed to providing a safe, seamless and sustainable transportation system that supports Georgia’s economy and is sensitive to its citizens and its environment. For more information, visit www.dot.ga.gov.
