⚠️‼️ ATTENTION BATESVILLE DRIVERS AND PEDESTRIANS‼️⚠️

As part of Batesville's SR 229 sidewalk project, there is a new HAWK (High-Intensity Activated CrossWalK) signal near Arlington Drive and Wessel Road.

For Drivers and Cyclists Traveling on the Street:

🚗 Unlike regular traffic signals, HAWK signals only illuminate when a
pedestrian activates the crossing button.

🚗 Always proceed with caution when the signal is off.

🚗 Slow down when the signal is flashing yellow.

🚗 Prepare to stop when the signal is solid yellow.

🚗 Stop when the signal is solid red.

🚗 When the signal is flashing red, make sure to keep an eye out for all crosswalk travelers and proceed with caution.

For Pedestrians and Cyclists Using the Crosswalk:

🚶 The HAWK signal works similar to other regular traffic signals.

🚶 Lights on the HAWK signal are activated by pushing the crossing button or waving at the white box area above the crossing button.

🚶 Start crossing when the walking human symbol is on; continue crossing during the countdown.

🚶 Cyclists should dismount and walk their bicycles while crossing the crosswalk.

🚶 Do not cross when the red hand symbol is on.

ATTENTION:

On Sunday, June 26, 2026, Batesville EMS, Fire, and Police received a report of a male who was choking and not breathing. Lt. Danny Hamilton was the first responding officer on the scene.

Lt. Hamilton observed the male was unresponsive laying on his side in front of a couch. Without hesitation, Lt. Hamilton sat the male in an upright position, and proceeded to perform the Heimlich Maneuver on him. After several thrusts, Lt. Hamilton had dislodged the food that the male was choking on, and he regained consciousness.

Without the quick actions of Lt. Hamilton, it is certain that the life of a Batesville citizen would have been lost that day. For his actions that day, Lt. Hamilton has been awarded the Lifesaving Award.
