The City of Aberdeen will remove traffic signals at several intersections on Market Street and 1st Street, shifting to stop sign control. The signals will be covered on September 23 as part of this transition, which aims to enhance traffic management and safety. The signals were previously placed in flashing mode starting June 16, indicating the first phase of the transition. Local officials believe that the new stop sign control will better regulate traffic flow in these areas. In addition, LeMay and the City of Aberdeen will sponsor a free Community Shred Day on September 27 from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at the Tesla Charging Lot, allowing residents to securely dispose of documents. The LeMay mobile shred truck will be on-site to assist with document destruction at no cost. This initiative reflects the city's commitment to community engagement and safety. Aberdeen residents can take advantage of both the traffic changes and the shredding event to improve local safety and security.
