One way

Wow, starting Monday, May 19, there will be no more northbound traffic on Center Street between Cypress and Union Streets in downtown Kennett; it'll be southbound only in that block. "The change is intended to increase available parking and make the intersection of State and Center Streets safer for pedestrians and motorists," said the borough in its announcement.



From a motorist's point of view, I have to agree that it was difficult pulling out from Center Street onto State Street. An intersection that seems to me to have even more limited visibility, though, is just a few blocks west, at Washington and State, where a hedge blocks your view as you're pulling out on to State Street. Unless you're sitting way up high in a pickup truck, you have to pull far enough out into the lane of travel that you get (justified) glares from oncoming motorists.
