Traffic advisory recommends speed bump, 15 mph residential limits and new stop signs for review
Summary
The town's Traffic Advisory Committee proposed adding a speed bump on Thomas Ave., considering lowering residential speed limits to 15 mph (including Cimarron Rd.) and adding stop signs at Franklin St. intersections; councilors reviewed the recommendations with no recorded action.
Council reviewed recommendations from the Aug. 21 Traffic Advisory Committee, which is considering several measures to reduce cut-through and high-speed traffic. Proposals discussed included adding a speed bump on Thomas Ave. to deter drivers bypassing Burton Ave., lowering the speed limit to 15 mph on residential streets (a change that would include Cimarron Rd. behind Mother Goose Land), and installing stop signs at each intersection on Franklin St.
The discussion was advisory; councilors did not take formal action at the Aug. 27 meeting and the committee continues to evaluate options and potential consequences for enforcement and signage.
