Traffic Corner
Gate 8 closed
Gate 8 (Vogelweh’s Armstrong’s Gate/Florida Loop) will be closed for preventive maintenance from 8 a.m. to noon Monday. All personnel are requested to use Gate 9 (Vogelweh Housing/B-270 Gate) for all entry and exit during this time. For details, call the 569th U.S. Forces Police Squadron Operations at 489-7040.

Rules for a four-way stop
A motorist approaching an all-way stop is always required to come to a full stop before the crosswalk or stop line. Pedestrians always have priority at a crosswalk, even if the crosswalk is not delineated with pavement markings. After a full stop has been made, vehicles have the right-of-way to proceed through the intersection in the order that they arrived at the intersection. In the case where vehicles arrive at the approximate same time, each driver must yield to the drivers on their right.

Traffic circle added
Effective immediately, the small traffic circle adjacent to the Hercules theater has been changed to a four-way stop. This change is being implemented to improve traffic safety.


Construction Corner

Ramstein commissary construction
The Ramstein commissary is undergoing a long-term construction project until fall
2012. The parking lot expansion will begin in mid January, resulting in a decrease in available parking. Members are encouraged to visit the commissary during non peak hours or visit the Vogelweh Commissary to avoid some of the congestion that is expected. Keep an eye out for more information on the construction project.
