The neighbors here on South Street are all in agreement that SOMETHING needs to be done about the worsening & increasingly dangerous automobile traffic on this stretch of the road. The area is adjacent to Goodwin Park, a playground, an elementary school & a number of school bus stops.
This past spring, a car accident took out a portion of the brand new wood piling fence near the public pool & the playground. Thankfully, the customarily heavy sidewalk traffic was light due to rain & the time of year. Today however, on 7/11, an elderly gentleman riding bike was struck by a car & had to be taken to the hospital. This is an area with many elderly folks & a lot of children who use the park & walk to nearby shops, restaurants & neighbors. It's a shame that we feel that at any moment we can be struck by speeding motorists while simply taking a casual stroll down one of the city's "quieter" streets. We are all deathly afraid that something more terrible than what has already occured will happen sooner than later.
Any help connecting us to the proper channels for addressing the issue would be greatly appreciated.
