State of New York STATE TRAFFIC COMMISSION Albany 1, N. Y March 4, 1959 r - Town Board Town of Queexsbury Warren County Gentlemen: A review of conditions on Route 149 at its intersection with Bay ,Road in the Town, of Queensbury indicates control of traffic by STOP signs would possibly be more effective if the STOW requirements were on Bay Road rather than on Route 149. Route 149 will be sigxed with new route markers this summer. This would undoubtedly indicate to strangers in the area that they do not have to watch out for STOP signs on the State Highway. It was noted. during; the review that most cars- traveling ox Bay Road reduce their speed upon approach to the intersection indicatixg the motorists'` awareness of approaching a main highway. :+fie have , therefore , rescinded a portion of the July 22, 1957 order and re--established the STOP requirement on Bay Road. A copy of the order is enclosed for the records of the Town. The State Department of Public Works ixstell and maintain.
