Description

The posted speed limit is 25 mph on Stone Monument Dr, but the majority of travelers pick up speed traveling west out of the adjoining neighborhood and down hill, as well as accelerating to get up the hill when traveling east from Ligon Mill Rd. Residents (and their children, pets) of the apartment complex need safe access across this street as they walk, carry trash to the dumpster, cross to the clubhouse/mailboxes/pool. In the adjoining neighborhood cars are parked along the curbs which helps to slow traffic along those stretches. Once drivers hit the wide-open spaces of the apartment complex their throttles are wide open as well. Please consider adding traffic calming mechanisms such as chicanes or chokers, a stop sign, or at a minimum, Pedestrian Crossing signs at the 2 crosswalks to remind speeding drivers that they are in a residential area. As you might imagine this is worst during high traffic times morning and evening but does occur throughout the day.
