A four-way stop has been installed at the intersection of East Brundage and Scott Streets. 

While appearing on Sheridan Media’s Pulse, Sheridan City Councilmember Terry Weitzel and Public Works Director Hanns Mercer urged the public to take notice of the new four-way stop. 

The changes at the intersection were supported by the public after a temporary stop was emplaced.

According to the City, seven crashes occurred at the intersection in just two years, 2024 – 2026 which met requirements in the

Transportation Master Plan to identify the intersection as dangerous.

Weitzel said in his conversations with the public, residents are pleased with the new four-way stop.

Flags have been placed on the stop signs to help bring them to the attention of motorists in the city. Mercer said the addition of flags to alert the public of new signs is a common practice and they will remain in place for approximately a year until those who frequently drive in the area develop the habit of stopping at the intersection of East Brundage and Scott Streets.
