Description
Cars go speeding up Mansfield Street at very unsafe speeds because it is just a long street, no stop signs or anything. Children are frequently riding bikes around as well, just seems like a terrible combination. Maybe adding stop signs or maybe even just speed bumps (or just those "rumble strips") to certain areas would help.

Mansfield used to be a two-way "yield street" prior to the arrival of McGrath in the city administration. It was converted to one-way operation, which causes severe vehicle speeding.
A group of neighbors who have lived on the street for many decades is interested in completing a "Complete Streets" request form to improve these situations. Contact newhavensafestreets (at) gmail.com if you would like to be added to the request, or help fill it out. The more neighbors the better!
