During a recent government meeting, concerns were raised regarding traffic safety in the vicinity of a new development at 630 Portside Lane and Eduardo Landing. A local resident highlighted the existing dangers on Route One, particularly between Velco Road and Riverside, which is already considered a high-risk area for accidents. The resident pointed out that there is an accident nearly every other day at the intersection with 30th Street.

The discussion emphasized the potential impact of the new community, which is expected to add 294 vehicles to the area. The resident questioned the adequacy of current traffic management and raised alarms about where the additional traffic would be directed, urging local officials to address these pressing safety concerns before the development proceeds. The meeting underscored the need for a comprehensive traffic assessment to ensure the safety of both current residents and newcomers.
