Traffic Counter Installed At Trumbull Intersection: Town

TRUMBULL, CT — A traffic counter was recently installed at an intersection in Trumbull, which the town will use to evaluate whether a traffic light is needed in the area, town officials announced Tuesday.

According to the town website, Trumbull's regional planning agency, MetroCOG, installed the traffic counter at the intersection of Daniels Farm and Hedgehog roads.

Town officials noted the count equipment "is non-intrusive, so there should be no impacts or obstruction of the counter to the roadway, traffic, pedestrians or private property."

The data is being collected in response to residents requesting the town evaluate the intersection for a traffic light, according to town officials.

Data collection was scheduled to begin Wednesday, and town officials anticipate the counter will be removed early next week.
