Thank you for reporting this issue to the City of Maumelle. We will make every effort to resolve this situation as soon as possible.

The city has put up signage in that area as well as a crosswalk to help slow traffic in that area. Also there was some visibility issues that were address with the resident on the corner. There are a few steps that will need to be taken before a three way intersection can be installed. First thing that you will need to do is call the Maumelle Police Dept. dispatch and have them run patrol in that area to determine if there is a speeding issue in that area. If you have any further questions please call Public Works at 501-851-2812.

A “slow” sign is a poor solution to a problem the new road has created. Vehicles coming over the hill southbound need to be required to Stop. Policing the area is not a real-long term solution either.

There are steps and procedures that the city follows to put in a three way intersection. The first step is to contact Maumelle Police Dept. to do an evaluation of that area. If the Police Dept. feels that a speed study needs to be conducted, they will contact Public Works to do the speed study. After this has been completed and a safety issue has been determined, it will be brought to the Traffic Comity's attention for a possible 3-way intersection to be installed. Again, please feel free to contact Public Works for details.

Poor visibility because the intersection is at the crest of a hill is the issue not speed.

Due to other ongoing projects this has been extended. Please bear with us in this.
