CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — An all-way stop is now in place at Yorktown Blvd. and Flour Bluff Drive.
Yorktown, between Corpus Christi and the Flour Bluff area, is only getting busier as new neighborhoods pop up in the area. An elementary school also is being built along the roadway.
One of the busiest intersections on Yorktown is at Flour Bluff Drive, which is why that intersection will now be a four-way stop, Sr. Public Information Officer Richard Vargas with the City of Corpus Christi Public Works Department confirmed to 3NEWS.
Vargas said the additional stop signs are being installed as the result of a traffic study done in the area. The signs will have flashing LED lights, and rumble strips will be installed before reaching each sign.
"Way long over due for one at this location," one Facebook commenter said.
Others wish a four-way stop would be added at the intersection of Waldron and Yorktown as well.
