I wanted to write to thank whoever has been responsible for the improvements on North Black
to add the roundabout and the four way yield at Black and Lamme. My son was hit on his bikeby a car at Lamme and Black last summer and something has been needed.
I also greatly appreciate the clear pedestrian crosswalk signs that have been added on
Mendenhall.
I would encourage you to look at Peach St. next as cars continue to drive at excessively highspeeds through this school and residential section. Any sort of traffic calming measures would
be welcome such as curb bump outs like on North Wallace or a simple roundabout or four waystop at someplace like Peach and Willison. I suspect the effective widening of Peach due to
elimination of parking on the south side of the street when the bike lane was added has alsocontributed to the higher speeds.
Again, thank you for the time and attention that has been shown to the traffic situation north of
Main St.
