| Question of the Week | | Tuesday we asked: As part of the City of Worcester’s plan to build a $90-million minor league baseball stadium, the Massachusetts Department of Transportation plans to completely overhaul Kelley Square, where six streets come together in the Canal District without a traffic light. MassDOT rates the intersection as one of the most dangerous in the state, and it had 294 crashes from 2013-2015 – the latest time period available – including 62 with injuries.

Does Kelley Square in Worcester need to be overhauled?
|
 |
- The redesign should benefit the neighborhood and enhance small business. It should be elegant and not just a lot of lights and signs. Pedestrian bridges might be useful, overpasses, etc. Expensive, I know.
- I avoid it at all costs!
- As someone who grew up learning how to drive K Sq, I would miss it but we have to realize the amount of drivers who would be coming into the area and had no idea how to drive through K Sq. The accidents
that happen there are mostly non-locals who happen upon the intersection.
