(MURFREESBORO) Two new traffic signals on NW Broad St. and Veterans Pkwy. will be put into full operation this coming Wednesday and Thursday (11/8-9, 2023). The new signals are being installed as part of new developments.

Two new signal are have been operating for about a week in FLASH MODE.  Those new signals are located at NW Broad St. and Singer Rd/Oswin Dr., and the second one is at Veterans Pkwy and Westlawn Blvd.  Both signals will flash for a week and then be turned on and put in full operation this coming Wednesday and Thursday (Nov. 8-9, 2023).

The Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD), a federal and state adopted document, specifies “traffic control signals need studies” known as warrants. A signal warrant is a condition that an intersection must meet to justify a signal installation.

The City of Murfreesboro applies the standards set by the MUCTD for all traffic control installations.
