Description

We experience frequent speeding on Woodland Rd. It happens several times a day. It occurs, primarily, during the morning and evening commute times but it does occur throughout the day.

It seems people use the street as a bypass to the Fellsway, to avoid waiting to enter the roadway, avoid the traffic controls. I've noticed an uptick in the amount of cars on Woodland Rd since the lights were installed at Fellsway and Highland Ave.

There are now more than a dozen children living on the street. There are sections that don't have sidewalk, forcing people to walk in the roadway. Given the hill midway up the road, there have been a number of near collisions as people come up the street too fast and encounter opposing traffic coming over the hill.

The neighborhood is concerned about the number of close calls. I'm afraid any instance would be fatal given the speed of the drivers through the area. What is the process for getting our street evaluated for additional speed controls?

Thank you
