Residents of Powell and Brandywine Creek Roads are finding it a little easier to pull out onto, and off, Route 162 now that both intersections have three-way stop signs. Locals call this stretch of road "suicide curve" because both Powell and Brandywine Creek join the winding main road at acute angles and on a steep upgrade, making sight distances very limited. Now motorists traveling from Unionville toward Embreeville (and vice versa) have to stop at both intersections.
"You have no idea what a relief it is to have those stop signs," reports one resident. "It was bad enough with a car, but with a truck and long trailer, turning left off 162 onto Brandywine Creek was a heart-stopping leap-of-faith experience."
