Description
I live on Buena Vista and with two small children am very unhappy with how fast vehicles travel down the street. I have seen vehicles passing on the left, traveling well above 40mph, and have recently had multiple flipped car accidents not far from our home. Crossing the street as a pedestrian is very unsafe. Please consider adding a stop sign at Wood St. or at least paint a cross walk with warning sign and lights. Thank you.
