Neighbors Say Pole is Obstructing Visibility

People in the Little Egg Harbor neighborhood commenting on Facebook said a recently installed pole at the curve in the road is blocking the visibility of drivers trying to get on to Radio Road.

I live right there!  The problem with that intersection is the huge electric pole they put there. You can not see around it until it’s too late. I’ve complained so many times, and nothing is done about it.

 

 

I agree since the poll has been installed it is obstructing visibility . Cars are driving so fast coming up from the curve ,it is so hard to see anything because of the poll while getting out of the neighborhood on a low speed . There has been 3 accidents that we can remember since the huge metal poll has been installed.

It is somewhat obstructing also the trees need to better trimmed so better visibility for the Golf Carts Crossing Too in my Opinion. People have to use extra caution.
