The accidents at Smith and Morningside need to stop. Another just happened. PLEASE put solar flashers on the Smith stop signs or even cross flags to get folks to actually stop there appropriately. Dangerous for cars. Deadly for bikers.
Can the City PLEASE do something about slowing down traffic on East Morningside through Park Ridge East. I think nearly every resident on the block has complained, particularly those with kids. It can be speed bumps, but can be anything else too, raised garden beds in the street periodically, rumble strips, anything. But it's getting worse now that traffic backs up past the stop sign more regularly now at Smith and Morningside between 3rd and Morningside because of limited lanes at the intersection with highway construction. So cars when backed beyond the stop sign are speeding through the neighborhood as a shortcut to get back to 3rd/highway. Any help is super appreciated. Please reach out to the neighborhood association if helpful, or honestly knock on any of our doors on E Morningside and we'd be happy to provide input as those living on the street are most affected. If you want a handful of names of supporters, let us know, but in short it's a residential street that is full of bikers and walkers and the neighborhood is largely contained so doesn't need a highway through it on Morningside. We welcome any sort of E/W B-line that we've heard about or anything else that isn't fast cars. Thank you! It also goes right by the park! Oh, we did want to say thank you for the new tennis benches at the park though! Folks across the city use those courts, so they'll come in handy!

East/west traffic improvements needed badly for years now
E Morningside Drive continues to have heavy speeders, even if most people fine. Multiple neighbors have requested traffic calming for years. Kids almost hit again today. For the people living on the road please do something.
What is the plan to address the lack of east/south thoroughfares in town? Have never lived anywhere where there are essentially zero two lane over 30 mps routes to cut through town. Causes neighborhood congestion, long commutes, more accidents and pollution, etc. We don't need many but we need SOMETHING! We're not THAT small of a city. Look at your peers. Thank you.
Meant east/west. South/north is not QUITE as bad so definitely not as pressing.
Hello. We received notice that our street is looking at a traffic calming preapplication. It appears criteria include items such as police reports. Though that sort of data is important please please consider that reality is beyond just what the data paint. We pushed two cars out that drove into our yard in the snow already this week on east morningside and just now noticed another individual going much much too fast down the road while texting. Please look at the experiences of those who live on the street, complaints, maybe even photos households have, and otherwise solicit input of residents on the affected possible roads for improvements. Thank you.
Please speed monitor or alter/enhance 7th/Longview Greenway for greater biker/pedestrian safety. Lots of unnecessary quick cutthrough traffic from Summerhouse in particular.
I just want to say we are SOOOO excited for the east-west 7-line and can't wait until it expands east of campus to neighborhoods, but still neat to see the progress for now! Please keep prioritizing this important spoke.
