Vicksburg Village Council member Denny Olsen recently expressed concern about two intersections in the area that he said feature an inordinate number of crashes.
During trustee comments at the end of the council’s Aug. 19 meeting, Olsen said he addressed the Kalamazoo County Road Commission Board in July regarding Sprinkle Road and TU Avenue.
Meanwhile, Olsen said he’s aware of a crash at U Avenue and Portage Road that took place two days before a collision at Sprinkle and TU Avenue.
He said Brady Township Supervisor Tracy Locey has submitted a grant request and in November, it will come up for review. Olsen said he would like to see safety measures made at both intersections if the grant is approved.
With or without grant funds, Olsen said more has to be done to make the two intersections safer.
