people drive like nuts on this street, some cay people speed and a child is going to get killed the way people weave around the parked cars

Its a shame that you have to slow down on Calhoun and let cars proceed, or is it? At least the cars are going slower, if they are still speeding , maybe a couple temporary speed bumps for the summer months.. As for children darting out from behind cars, well thats where your experience as a driver comes in, you must pay attention to the road. Maybe put down that cell phone, stop fiddling with the radio.. Pay attention!! I work on the roads, and I see 9 out of 10 cars where the driver has a cell in hand. just saying.....
Thanks, and be safe.

Its funny how people who live on this street who probally are the ones parking on the sides of it when their driveways are empty, like to comment about the speeding. Speeding is a separate issue. The concern posted was about not being able to see children dqarting out from berhind cars as well as trying to get through a very congested street. This is the issue trying to be addressed here. speeding is an isssue everywhere .Our officers in Torrington are working to address that. J.W

This issue to date still has not been addressed and is currently an issue on the side streets off Calhoun street. If your driveway is empty why do you have to park on the street. It is ridiculous. I have seen not just regular vehicles struggle to get through but the school buses have a heck of a time. Main street limits on street parking and is band on certain parts of the strip and it works out fine. It wouldn't be as much of a problem if a few people who park their business vehicles out front of their home but everyone is parking on the street. It needs to be limited. /J.W

its not only that people are parking on calhoun and the side streets and walking to corner business,, smoke shop etc,,, there are also cars parked in the no parking places on the street
