A Lake Wales Intersection Will Remain A 4-way Stop After Accident Damages Traffic Light

Date:

It’s official: the intersection of Central Ave. and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd will remain a 4-way stop.

A traffic accident several months ago at this intersection damaged the existing traffic light sufficiently to force the creation of a four-way stop at this intersection.

On Tuesday, August 26, 2025, Eric Marshall, City of Lake Wales Communications and Engagement Director, stated that two traffic poles and mast arms were removed.

“The intersection is now a four-way stop,” Marshall says.

A visit to the site has confirmed that the original poles have been removed.
