Address incorrect listed under “Traffic Sign Issue”.
Issue on Woodridge Pwy/ Alderman Rd.

The cars parked up and down the street are blocking traffic. Also, a fire truck could not get through in an emergency.

Due to our proximity to Carwise Middle School, parents have using our neighborhood as a carline waiting area making the Woodridge Pkwy entrance off of Alderman an accident waiting to happen every weekday beginning at 3:45 PM. Sometimes the exit lane is completely blocked making it impossible to get out of our neighborhood. It is also an issue in the morning with parents dropping off their children before school, but it is worse in the afternoon because of the cars waiting. Perhaps a waiting lane can be created on Alderman before the Right Hand Turn Lane. Something must be done!

Due to an increase over pipulation at Carwise Middle School, parent have been having their children cross the street and greet their parents in a carline in the Cobbs Landing neighborhood. There are several reasons why this must stop and another solution should be put in place. Safety and Security of our children are a priority. I have witnessed kids darting in front of cars to get their awaiting parent. Secondly, there are no officers patrolling increasing the danger of actually who these awaiting people in the cars are. Additionally, if there was a true emergency, first reaponders would not be able to get through. I have contacted the school and never received a response. I took one picture of a parent cutting me off and blocking the road. That is not ok. The patrol officer is aware, but I know her hands are tied. I am certain it is frutrating for her as well.

We had the same issue in Bentley Park. Contact the Traffic Enforcement Officer at the Public Works and PCSO. They assisted me in discontinuing the car line up on Bentley Dr and through The Estates at Bentley Park.
They came out and did a traffic study and put up no parking signs during school pickup/dropoff hours.

This is a 20 minute issue at all the schools. Slow down everyone.

Hank it is a safety and secutiy issue. They have a dedicated carline at tue school these parents can use.

There is no way for first responders to get through the street in as cars block our subdivision at Woodridge and Alderman. Installing no parking signs and enforcing it would certainly curb this ongoing problem. Your attention to this will be appreciated by our neighborhood.

Are these streets public?
Went by there today, you could fit a cruise ship by there 🛳⛴🚢. There is plenty of room for everyone.

The water is to shallow. You sir are missing the piont.

Agree Rick P !!!

We have been working with the HOA and the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office on this issue. There is an existing No Parking on School Days sign at the intersection Woodbridge Parkway and Alderman Road. Additional signing and increased enforcement are planned. If you have any additional questions please contact Tom Washburn P.E. at (727) 464-8804. Thank you for your interest in our Transportation System.
