Description
South Arthur Ashe Boulevard needs some speed control features. Ideas include speed cameras, increased speed enforcement, speed humps or other speed reducing infrastructure in order to persuade drivers to slow down. I see drivers constantly exceeding the posted speed limit for this high pedestrian residential neighborhood. There was a fatal crash that involved pedestrians next door to me last week related to speed https://www.nbc12.com/2021/05/05/driver-killed-carytown-crash-after-striking-pole/
