Leesburg Announces New All-Way Stop Intersection on Griffin Road

LEESBURG, FL – The Leesburg Public Works Department is converting the intersection of Griffin Road, Lee Street and Lee Court to an all-way stop. The modification is being made to address pedestrian safety and traffic concerns.
Notices have been posted in the area advising travelers of this traffic control measure. The new stop signs are scheduled to be installed on Monday, October 30, 2023. To bring extra attention to the change, high visibility LED lighted stop signs will be in place for at least one month before eventually being replaced with standard signs.
Drivers and pedestrians are encouraged to use extra caution while navigating this area as everyone learns the new traffic pattern.
For questions or additional information, please contact the Public Works Department at 352-435-9442.
