First and foremost - city streets are not intended for children to play.

We will however consider speed humps if the 24-hour average operating speed exceeds 35 MPH.

I will schedule studies and post the results with our recommendations.

I agree that city streets are designed for cars and not children but when it's in a neighborhood and the posted speed limit is 35moh and people are driving 40-45-50 it's not safe. Our children deserve to live in a safe neighborhood. I appreciate you looking into it for us, speed bumps have been put on other avenues and streets in our neighborhood so I hope we get the same response.

Daniele,

The speed limit on 18th Avenue N is 30 MPH. Our recent 24-hour studies recorded average operating speeds of between 32 and 33 MPH. IN order for speed humps to be considered I must verify speeds in excess of 35 MPH. So this area does not qualify.

I have however met with the neighborhood association and I'm waiting for a letter requesting that 25 MPH speed limit signs be posted. As well, I'm waiting for a request to modify the stop sign grid so that there are stop sign every two blocks, to help reduce the opportunity to speed.

Thank you I appreciate your efforts. Anything will be a help.

The City of St Petersburg periodically reviews past reports that are made from citizens within our city limits, and in an effort to clean-up old issues that were resolved some time ago, we are marking as 'closed' those issues that were submitted in the past for which the work has been completed or the issue has otherwise been resolved.

If you think for any reason that the issue you submitted in the past might still be unresolved, please feel free to submit a new report with the SeeClickFix St. Pete website and we will make sure the issue is directed to the appropriate City department to be addressed as soon as possible.

Thank you - MAC
