After Braeyla's Tragedy, Village Acts | Madison News

After a heartbreaking accident that claimed the life of an eight-year-old girl, the McFarland Village Board has unanimously approved a $14,000 traffic study at the dangerous Broadhead Street and North Peninsula Way intersection. Led by engineering firm AECOM, the two-month investigation will analyze vehicle speeds, pedestrian and bike traffic, and road design to identify safety flaws. In response to community grief and outcry, the village is also hosting a public listening session on August 6th at 6 PM to hear residents’ concerns directly. This is more than just a study—it’s a community-driven effort to prevent future tragedies and rebuild trust through action.
