Bigger issue is speeding cars.
Don't want trucks on the road stop buying crap and they won't be here to deliver it!!

9 times out of 10 either GPS or the person the called for delivery directions routes trucks that way and since they don't know the area they follow the directions they have.
Trucks are also allowed to make local deliveries irregardless of the no trucks sign.
The FedEx and UPStruck that go by my house rattle the windows more than the occasional list tractor trailer truck.
Easy fix to all truck traffic, close the mill, bars, grocery stores, restaurants and any other business that has trucks making deliveries or picking if their product.
When did Rapids get so full of whining people, my neighbors grass is a 1/4 inch higher than mine, they parked their car with one wheel on the grass, there's a piece of garbage on their lawn, my neighbor snores and it keeps me awake.
People need to grow up and realize it's not a perfect world and you probably @#$% people off as well except they don't hide in here behind some annomous/fictitious name boohooing about everything!!
Let's not rid the city of the dope dealers or catch people running 10 over the speed limits or driving like idiots because they can't read a clock and leave 5 minutes sooner.
It's turned into a me me me society, God have Mercy on us all!!!

If any one has suggestions to help the city, I'm sure they would appreciate it. Attempting to insult and shame each other and them accomplishes nothing. Kpatt I like the idea of the four way stop but I'm thinking there would be a ton of backup. There's already often 100 yards of traffic backup on Baker and 8th due to the school and commuters in the morning.
I didn't think the no trucks signage alone would have had the impact it has, but it proves many drivers were getting lost. I know this part of Rapids is notoriously difficult to navigate for truckers.
I think something that would help is functionally narrowing the road. I know we lost the grass boulevard west of 8th street, so the street seems very wide like it should be a truck route and that the speed limit should be higher. And I think the bike routes are a big waste. I RARELY see bikes on those lanes, and I myself use a back road, since there is such a high volume of traffic, even ignoring the heavy vehicles. I know us homeowners need the parking and an unused and frankly dangerous bike lane seems like a big waste. If there were cars parked on the sides, not only would it make the homeowners happy, but big trucks would be less inclined to take the route and traffic would probably move much much slower and safer (for the children of course).
