Traffic advisory recommends speed bump, residential 15 mph limits and stop signs
Summary
The Traffic Advisory Committee asked the council to consider adding a speed bump on Thomas Ave., lowering residential speed limits to 15 mph (including Cimarron Rd.), and adding stop signs along Franklin St.; council discussed but took no formal action at the meeting.
Council reviewed recommendations from the town’s Traffic Advisory Committee during the Aug. 27 meeting. The committee proposed installing a speed bump on Thomas Ave. to prevent drivers from avoiding the existing speed bump on Burton Ave., reducing speed limits on some residential streets to 15 mph (which would include Cimarron Rd. behind Mother Goose Land), and installing stop signs at each intersection on Franklin St.
Councilors discussed the proposals and study implications; no formal vote or timetable for implementation was recorded. Public works staff indicated that more analysis and equipment planning would be required before changes to pavement marking or signage could be enacted.
