(Richmond, IN)--After two recent serious crashes, including one that turned fatal, Richmond police on Wednesday released a statement saying they’ve requested an INDOT traffic study for North and South A Street. Several years ago, traffic lights on those one-way streets were synchronized – meaning drivers could go the entire lengths of those streets without stopping for a red light. Following construction a few years ago, that synchronization was removed to discourage assumptions about simultaneous green lights. RPD says it will increase patrols on those streets until the study is complete.
