UPDATE: Dewey Beach seeks to enhance pedestrian safety with lowered crossing beacons and extended barriers
In an effort to bolster pedestrian safety, the town of Dewey Beach has requested the state to lower the height of flashing yellow crossing beacons. These beacons, originally installed to increase awareness of crosswalks and ensure that vehicles stop for pedestrians, have proven difficult to see in bright daylight, especially during the bustling summer months.
