I have the same issue :(

The cities official stance is they changed the speed limit to keep it safe for people using the on street parking for the new shopping center. The problem with their narrative is that they took away ALL on street parking in front of the shopping center and converted them into turn lanes. The speed limit should be increased back to what it was. There are fields and construction, and one strip mall with no on street parking.

Thanks for reporting this issue to Gilbert 311! The speed limit had to be decreased for safety reasons due to the on-street parking. We have gone ahead and passed the information along to our patrol team. Thank you.

Nice try Brenda, but there is no additional on street parking. That is a complete and total lie.

I see cut outs on the right & left side of Williams Field and Recker intersection for what I assume will be parking for the upcoming stores etc. I do believe patrol should be out there monitoring because people try to run you over daily if you are following the new posted speeds making for a dangerous situation for sure.

Those cutouts have been there for years, since the sidewalks were first put in. The original plan called for a different type of construction, but that has changed. The cutouts for on street parking that the city said they reduced the speed limit for were removed, and are now turn lanes. The remaining cutouts will likely have the same thing done, if not the speed limit can be addressed at that point in time, for now there is no reason to have a reduced speed limit.
