25-2027 : Glushefski, Safety Complaint & Traffic Study Request

This agenda item, 25-2027, concerns a safety complaint and a request for a traffic study related to dangerous intersections in Buffalo. The request stems from a recent incident where Councilmember Vanessa Glushefski's daughter was hit by a car while crossing Delaware and Amherst Street. The letter highlights concerns about the safety of this intersection, as well as others like Nottingham and Delaware, for residents, students, park-goers, and cyclists. The request urges the Common Council to commission a traffic study to identify potential solutions for making these intersections safer. The item was referred to the CD on December 23, 2025, and was subsequently TABLED by the Common Council, with the next meeting scheduled for January 13, 2026.
