The Pikesville Improvement Corporation is advocating for safety improvements on Reisterstown Road. This comes as police investigate a fatal hit-and-run in September claimed the life of 64-year-old Melissa Nocho. "That's the second one we've had so far this year in this area, and last year we also had one, so it's just something that keeps reoccurring in this area, so it's just unfortunate," he said. Over the past few years, the group has been discussing measures such as better lighting, clearer road striping, and speed cameras with local and state officials to improve safety for pedestrians and drivers. "It's daily, I'll get pictures and videos of them having issues on this road, close calls of pedestrians trying to cross the road, bumper-to-bumper, light accidents," said Dan Brody, president of the Pikesville Improvement Corporation. Brody expressed frustration over the recurring accidents in the area. The group has been working for years to make Reisterstown Road safer. Brody highlighted some of the proposed changes, including improved pedestrian crossings and traffic light functionality.
