Council Focuses on Streets and Trees

The intersection of Yale and Cornell avenues dominated the Swarthmore Borough Council meeting on Monday night. During the public comment section of the meeting, four residents relayed their concerns about safety at the intersection. Two of these had previously spoken at the Public Safety Committee meeting on January 27. The other two principal issues discussed at the meeting had to do with trees.

Scrutiny for Yale Avenue

At the meeting of the Swarthmore Borough Council Public Safety Committee on Monday, January 27, the conversation revolved around two intersections on Yale Avenue: the intersection of Yale and Cornell, and the intersection of Yale and Chester Road. Several borough residents came to the meeting to voice their concerns.

A Busy Intersection

The intersection of Yale and Cornell avenues was the focus of much of Borough Council’s Public Safety Committee meeting on November 19. The junction was the site of two accidents in recent weeks, so Chair Mary Walk asked Swarthmore Police Chief Raymond C. Stufflet to provide data on the number of accidents there over the last year.
