White Pine council bars tractor-trailers from four town streets
Summary
After residents reported tractor-trailers using Willis Street and cutting through a yard on Walnut Street, the Town Council unanimously designated Walnut (Main to State), Willis, Jarnigan and Oak streets as no-thru truck routes following discussion with public safety staff.
The White Pine Town Council voted unanimously on April 7 to ban through truck traffic on four residential streets after residents raised safety and property concerns. The motion, made by Mrs. Arwood and seconded by Mr. Woods, designated Walnut Street (Main to State), Willis Street, Jarnigan Street and Oak Street as no-thru truck routes.
Mrs. Arwood said tractor-trailers were traveling down Willis Street and even cutting through a yard on Walnut Street. After discussion with Chief Cotter about enforcement and safety, council members agreed to close those roads to through truck traffic. The transcript does not record specific enforcement dates, signage plans or exceptions for local deliveries.
The council did not adopt an accompanying ordinance text at the meeting; the action was recorded as a unanimous vote to designate the streets as no-thru truck corridors. Implementation details, such as signage, enforcement protocols, or timelines, were not specified in the minutes recorded in the transcript.
