Officials in Clearwater, Florida, are taking proactive measures in anticipation of Hurricane Milton's impending landfall. The city is bracing for the impact of the storm by implementing various strategies to safeguard critical infrastructure and ensure the safety of residents.

One of the key steps being taken is the removal of traffic signal boxes to prevent damage during the storm. This measure aims to mitigate potential hazards and streamline traffic flow in affected areas. In the absence of traffic signal boxes, residents are advised to treat intersections as four-way stops to ensure safe passage.
