Description
Requesting a speed table to slow traffic & making Evelyn Byrd Rd “One Way” east bound. Commuters are using this as a cut thru from & to riverside drive using Evelyn Byrd as a means to bypass Westover Hills Blvd and the traffic lights during rush hour. Several children had close encounters with speeding vehicles recently. The speed table will slow traffic reducing life safety risk. The one way street will reduce traffic that doesn’t live in the neighborhood that is using side roads as a cut thru.

- Staff · October 29, 2021A speed table is not planned given Evelyn Byrd Rd stops at Westover Hills Blvd and at Prince Arthur Rd. The length is about 550’. A one-way street conversion must be supported by the local City Council Representative.
