Description
Since Calumet Street was repaved it is now a raceway. We have NO 25 MPH signs and cars go 40-50 mph all day long. The center of the street is NOT marked by a white line. We have no speed bumps, all we have is speeding cars. From St. Alphonsus to Wait Street 25 MPH signs are needed. ALSO at the corner of Calumet and Sachem Streets there should be NO PARKING on the left side of Sachem for at least 40 feet going up to Hillside Street. Fire trucks cannot turn because of parked cars at the corner. If the left side was NO PARKING, the street could be easily utilized by EMERGENCY vehicles. The 40 feet would make a safety difference. Thanks for your time. |
