Which Jamaica Plain Intersections Need 'Don't Block the Box' Markings?

The city has rolled out a New York City-style "Don't Block the Box" campaign urging drivers not to enter intersections if they can't get through. Which JP intersections need "Don't Block the Box" markings and signs?

Last week 18 intersections across the city started sporting ".

It's a $150 fine to drive into an intersection that you can't get through before the light turns red. None of the initial 18 intersections is in JP. Where in our neighborhood do we need "Don't Block the Box" campaigns?

As a Forest Hills resident I nominate the intersection of Washington and New Washington. It's murder at rush hour with folks trying to turn left from Arborway onto Washington. Where else?
