There are 4 grade schoolers and a toddler living at 1402 W 8th. Several residents in Waterman push strollers. A blind man and his service dog walk to/from his home on West 8th. Drivers occasionally reach 50 mph on 8th street. A "slow children" sign might slow them down.
I would like to suggest that 2 speed bumps be installed on S Jackson St between 3rd St and 4th St. Drivers use this route as a shortcut when traveling east-west on W Kirkwood and W 3rd. They avoid the light at Kirkwood and Rogers to save time by driving fast on S Jackson St. The drivers usually speed along S Jackson St, making for a dangerous situation. At least, a study of traffic patterns on S Jackson should be conducted.
The entry to Muller Parkway and the short distance to the first speed bump to the entrance of the Muller Village Apartments seems to create a challenge of going as fast as possible before the first speed bump. We have had cars speed by here so fast that their engine is revving and the car is a blur. Residents and visitors from the mobile home park attempting to pull out are put in a dangerous situation, end these folks are old retired folks. I am owner of Stewart Electric Supply across from the mobile home park, and we have customers backing out of our lot to get back onto Muller. This is very dangerous for them, and they have angry drivers that are blaming our customers and employees for slowing them down. Honking and angry drivers is not unusual. We would like to request a speed bump in front of our shop at 320 S. Muller Parkway in an effort to slow these drivers down.
