“Mayor Jon Mitchell was recently asked about the traffic build up at the intersection of Ashley Blvd and Acushnet Ave on his weekly radio show.
The City’s Department of Public Infrastructure is aware of an increase in traffic wait times at the intersection of Ashley Blvd and Acushnet Ave by Pa Raffa’s. Timing of the traffic lights was changed as a result of recent accidents in that area, particularly from motorists crossing two lanes of traffic to make a left turn.
DPI is actively engaged with a traffic control company to modify the traffic lights at the intersection to better increase the flow of traffic.” -City of New Bedford.
