Council addresses traffic safety concerns on High School Drive near McGrath school

During the recent Public Safety Committee meeting in Brentwood, significant concerns were raised regarding traffic safety on High School Drive. The discussion was prompted by residents' difficulties in safely exiting an alley due to obstructive parking and non-compliance with existing signage.

Committee member Lanice provided a detailed explanation of the situation, highlighting that the current parking practices near the alley are creating unsafe conditions for drivers. The issue is particularly pressing during peak traffic times, especially in the mornings when parents are dropping off children at nearby McGrath School and the Early Childhood Center.

The committee acknowledged the need for potential solutions, including the possibility of adding more signage to improve visibility and compliance among drivers. This proactive approach aims to enhance safety for residents and school traffic alike.

As the committee continues to address these concerns, the focus remains on ensuring that the streets of Brentwood are safe for all users, particularly in areas with high pedestrian activity. Further discussions and potential actions will be necessary to resolve the issues on High School Drive effectively.
