Update: Traffic Signals Working Again; Tree Still Down on Drake

Hurricane Sandy makes an impact in Strongsville

 

Traffic signals at the corner of Pearl and Royalton roads were not working this morning, but are cycling properly now.

A couple trees took down power lines during the night due the the high winds caused by Hurricane Sandy.

Sgt. Lee Colegrove said the signals at Routes 42 and 82 were flashing four-way red about 8 a.m. The lights were working again by mid-morning. 

Drake Road remains closed a little east of Prospect Road. A tree fell and is blocking the road. It caught an overhead line on its way down.

Colegrove said CEI has been notified, but is not yet on the scene. He said the power company was working on another tree-power line situation in the area of Fair and Eastland roads.

The rest of Drake Road is open. A reader reported power was out this morning in the Jonathan-Lorraine area.

Valley Parkway is closed west of Pearl Road and east of Handle Road.

I agree with tom m. It is not "user friendly" at all! The whole setup and search isRead More terrible. This new format should be thrown out and the old one put back in place. A look at other Patch editions out of state also have very little comments now. I would much prefer the old Patch, but now a better alternative by far to this new Patch is any of these: http://www.strongsville.com/ and http://www.thepostnewspapers.com/strongsville/ and http://www.cleveland.com/strongsville/ and http://hometownindependent.com/strongsville/

I agree with tom - this new format is awful - nothing good about it at all. Throw it out and putRead More the old Patch back in place. Hey readers, check out strongsville.com - its a better alternative than this Patch is now. For news, just go to cleveland.com.

I keep trying to leave a comment with links to other local sites - but the comment disappears. AtRead More least these other ones are much better alternatives than this new Patch. I agree with tom m - this new Patch is awful, nothing good about it at all.
