Description
We have always had issues with people speeding on this road. A lot of drivers use the road as a shortcut to access Chippenham or Forest Hill Ave. With the new restaurant, this has become worse. With all the people parking on the road which is already so narrow, pedestrians, and and speeding, it has become dangerous.

- Staff · February 18, 2025The 85th percentile speed, the speed that 85 percent of drivers travel at or below, is one of the best indicators of a reasonable and safe speed. The 85th percentile speed on Grantwood Rd between Chippenham Pkwy and Forest Hill Ave measured 23 mph in a 25-mph zone. Speed tables are not planned.
