Drivers will have to get used to stopping at the traffic light on Hampden Street off the Mueller Bridge.
HOLYOKE – Police are alerting drivers to a change on Hampden Street off the Mueller Bridge in which a complete stop will be required at the traffic light before taking a right leading up to Lincoln Street.
Drivers got used to the nearly constant green arrow on the light that permitted the turn, Lt. Michael J. Higgins said Thursday.
The change was made to accommodate residents of that part of Hampden Street. The goal is to give them a break in the steady traffic, especially in the morning and late afternoon, so they can drive in and out of their driveways, he said.
