Lenox st needs to have speed bumps and signs in order to control speeding. Open

177-239 Lenox St New Haven, CT 06513, USA - Fair Haven Heights

The speeding on Lenox st is getting out of control. The city should put up signs and speed bumps in order to control the amount of speeding cars driving on Lenox st. Lexington ave, after the car race accident, got speed bumps and the amount of speeding cars has slowed down. Also the speeding on quinnipiac ave has slowed down after speed bumps and signs were added to the street. I strongly feel that Lenox st is well over due for speed bumps and signs. I moved on Lenox st in 1999. With-in 3 days still getting settled in I almost got hit by a speeding car when my basketball rolled into the middle of Lenox st. I now have a 7 year old nephew and a 3 year old niece that live on Lenox st, I fear for their and everyone else's safty! Please vote to help!!

  I think this Complete streets manual is kind of pathetic, it seems to me that reworking layouts of streets is WAY more costly than an occasional cop taking radar. Its almost a diversion tactic.

  For your sake I hope they put REAL speed bumps & NOT what they put on Lexington. Ours are useless.

  FYI ~ I live on Lexington & the so-called bumps are far too low & useless except to dirt bikers who use them for "wheelies"!! The ones are Front St. are much better & do force cars to slow down. On lexington, cars, etc. speed & are not deterred whatsoever by what are called speed bumps.

  We have heard nothing since the block watch meeting in October with the traffic and transportation director. We have submitted the Complete Streets manual. I have a call in to Mr Travers and hope to hear from him. He also had been concerned about safety of kids going to school. Can we get help in pursuing this?

Brand new potholes from roadwork on brand new road Archived

Quinnipiac Ave New Haven, CT - Fair Haven Heights

Is this how all the roads get so damaged here? Brand new road surface has been left torn up after utility, gas or other company that needed to get under the road has finished their work and left the road in a much worse state than when they got there.

Speed bumps would work much better than new potholes on Quinnipiac av.

  These people are paid really well, after all they are almost all union workers. Possibly that is the problem, they cant get fired unless they dont show up to work or they kill someone. Maybe the police officers that make 20-30 bucks more an hour than a regular flagger could oversee the work since they are there just standing around with no flags.

Dangerous intersection/speeding Open

Clifton St/Russell St Intersection CT 06513, USA - Fair Haven Heights

There is constant speeding occurring on Clifton St (where the posted speed limit is 25 mph but the average speed is closer to 40+ mph). In addition, people are always blowing the stop signs on Russell St. Needless to say there is atleast one accident a year at this intersection and numerous near misses. Either a four-way stop sign or speed bumps are needed to slow down the traffic on Clifton St. This is also a high pedestrian traffic area due to both a city bus stop and school bus stops and it can be dangerous crossing the street due to the speeding vehicles.

  Have you contacted your Alderperson about this issue?
  
  The city's complete streets policy was adopted unanimously this fall, and there are forms within the new manual for requesting changes like these.
  
  Contact the city's transportation department and/or newhavensafestreets (at) gmail.com (a local advocacy group) if you need assistance requesting these types of changes to your street.
  
  Many of your neighbors agree this is a major problem and that changes should be made ASAP.

  This definitely needs to be resolved. Children ride their bicycles and people are standing at the bus stops. We were out one night walking our dogs and a car going down Clifton from Eastern Street doing about 50 miles per hour and rear ended a van going into a driveway because they had no time to stop. We need a light or speed bumps immediately! I don't think a four way stop will work, they will still go through it without stopping.

  I was involved in an accident here. I was rear ended while sitting at the stop sign yielding for west bound clifton speeders. I was heading north on russel sitting at the sign when i was hit from behind. This intersection is no good as it is.

Two deep potholes Archived

There are tow large potholes right at the speed bump. Unfortunately they're located located where you either turn toward packed cars or oncoming traffic to avoid them. My wife called over a week ago, but noting done yet.

bike accident - need speedbump and crosswalk Archived

731 Quinnipiac Ave New Haven, CT 06513 - Fair Haven Heights

As today's bike accident shows us - kids will not slow down on this hill on their own. We need a speedbump at the bottom of Clifton, which will also help cars to slow down. Also, this is across the st from a busy restaurant. We sorely need a crosswalk here now, not when Q Ave gets redone next yr. The crosswalk will also slow drivers on Q Ave down. Please!

  I agree that a crosswalk and other traffic calming measures should be added immediately, not many months from now when the street is supposedly going to be completely rebuilt.

Children of 188 Lexington Ave racing a red Honda with no plates up and down Lexington Ave every other day between speed bumps. I'm pretty sure their parents weren't home and I know the cops have been notified numerous times. Usually takes place before dark in the late afternoon.

  Please, can someone do something about this? Anyone? Do the police even acknowledge this website anymore? This kid makes enough noise in our neighborhood to make it seem like we live on the Indy 500 racetrack. I can assume one thing though, anyone who craps in their own bed enough will have to move on eventually. I do know now that the parents of this child dont care one little bit, they care less about the neighborhood than their kids do.

  Yes, if I'm not mistaken, this was done on purpose. The turn lane had been installed only temporarily to help with the extra traffic while the Ferry St. bridge was being worked on. I seem to recall that the request was made at a Q-Ave redo meeting by residents who live on that corner to have the turn lane removed as part of the redo to return the corner the way it was before. I think traffic has been a lot heavier the last few days since the Ferry St bridge is being worked on again. Does anyone know how long that will take?

  I feel your pain, as a resident of the Heights I have to say the criminals outnumber the occasional police car about 100 to 1. dirtbikes, quads and race cars all night long, I'd rather hear a siren ONCE IN A WHILE!!! I like my neighborhood and most of my neighbors but I cant wait to get out of this town, I pay WAY too much in taxes to be ignored by the police. Just a week or so ago I left a message for Sgt. Vincent Anastasio the east shore top cop and have not heard back from him.
