City Council Chambers – Help Slow Down Cars on Main Street

More the Merrier, and More Effective the Result!
September 15, 4:00
Many Leeds residents have expressed concerns about the speeding cars on Main Street in Leeds. Children walk this route to get to school, it has a narrow bridge, and poor sight lines at both the Arch Street intersection and Mulberry Street intersection. Often cars ignore the stop sign at Mulberry altogether. Thankfully, a traffic calming application was submitted last month by Main Street resident, Jason Johnson. On Tuesday, September 15th the Transportation and Parking Commission will consider and vote on the Leeds application (whether or not to undertake a traffic study).

Resident input is important!

  • Bringing small children to the meeting and talking about their safety is effective.
  • Your remarks can be as long as you like, but shorter rather than longer remarks are always appreciated by the Comissioners.
  • The meeting begins at 4 pm with public comment which you are welcome to speak, but it is more effective if you can wait until the agenda item is announced.
  •  Application discussion is almost always first on the agenda so you don’t have to wait long to hear the results of the vote.
