closed: Resolved #188164

Traffic Related Complaints:

Other: We live on Southern Oaks Drive (between Sare Road and Oakmount Drive). Drivers frequently use our street as a "cut through." We have many children in our neighborhood and, this afternoon, a five year old boy riding his bicycle was almost hit by a driver speeding through this area. The driver did not even slow down, rather, they swerved to go around him. He swerved the same direction and they almost hit him. Our request is for speed bumps or some sort of traffic calming device to be place on South Southern Oaks Drive before a child is seriously hurt or even killed. This situation will only worsen as more apartments, and businesses are built on Sare Road.

Referred the resident to the resident-led traffic calming and greenways program. While the 2024 application period has closed, this would be a good opportunity for the 2025 program.
