Descrizione
When the building permits for the Lenox and the Maddox were issued by the city (circa 2016), the neighbors in house nearby requested a traffic study on Van Vorst for the increased vehicles. It's now 2022 and no changes have been made to the flow of vehicle traffic on Van Vorst (between Sussex and Morris Street. There is currently parking on both side of the street and two-way traffic. There isn’t room for 4 cars on Van Vorst and it's worse when there are larger delivery and food trucks parked at the intersection. Cars frequently cannot turn onto the street and are forced to back up into traffic. Visibility turning onto Morris is poor which creates dangerous conditions for pedestrians. The street can support only three cars, so either it should be turned into a one-way street or parking eliminated from one side.

Thank you for the update on the issue. With the removal of the 3 parking spots, will this solve the traffic congestion turning from Van Vorst onto Morris? From the description, it seems the 3 spots to be removed are closer to Grand. There have been many close calls to cars sideswiping our vehicle on the block of Van Vorst between Sussex and Morris.
Although I was not able to attend the April HPHA meeting but had corresponded with representatives before the meeting to contribute.

The community members at the HPHA meeting did not recommend further elimination of on-street parking. It was the consensus of the community members gathered at the meeting that the higher priority for safety was the block between Sussex and Grand.
We will continue to monitor conditions once the 3 spaces are removed. Further action could be taken with community support.
