Description

Vehicles are ignoring the stop signs at the corner of Hillside Ave and Witch Hill Rd. This issue we have been complaining about for years with not much getting done about it. Hillside Ave (South of Witch Hill Rd.) and Witch Hill Rd. do not have pedestrian sidewalks with cars speeding and blowing through the stop signs. The issue is worse during rush hours 7 AM to 9 AM and 4 PM to 6 PM. This is a concern of most of the neighbors in the area. We have complained about this several times and it’s only getting worse.

My suggestions;
1) Waze, Google and other GPS route cars through this neighborhood as a cut through. There is a way to remove that info.
2) Make Colbey Street and Proctor Streets One Way from. (One North One South)
3) Every once in a while a Police Presence giving tickets out.

Next step will be to get a petition from all the residents signed and handed into the city.
