Speeding Open

Decatur Street West Columbia, SC - West Columbia

Speed Limit is 30, People drive 40-50 MPH

  After Decatur Street was repaved, drivers are speeding more than they use to. I see cars going so fast that they have to cross the double yellow line into on coming traffic in order to make it around a curve because they are going so fast. There are a lot of children and adults that walk on the side of the road because there are no sidewalks. Someone is going to get hurt or killed if the speeding continues.

Speeding on Hook Ave Open

Hook Avenue West Columbia, SC - West Columbia

WCPD needs to patrol Hook Ave. The speed limit is 35! Cars and especially 18-wheelers FLY down this road. The houses are close together and driveways are hidden. Now we have a new housing development going up that will bring A LOT more traffic. Please look into this!

  The traffic and speeding is only getting worse on Hook Ave. A new housing development has been built and people FLY up and down the road. Some of our driveways are hidden and it is dang near impossible to safely pull out. People will not slow down nor stop to allow us homeowners a safe exit. The houses are close together, there is no sidewalk and there is a lot of foot traffic. This will all add up to a fatality one day. Please look into better traffic control or speed humps (like on Park St. in Cottontown).

Needs left turn arrow Open

Sunset Blvd Lexington, SC - Lexington County

Making a left off of Sunset Blvd (378) onto Corley Mill is very dangerous, especially in the afternoon. Many people run the red light, and there have been several accidents there recently. The other side has a turn arrow, so there is no reason not to have one in this direction as well, and it is definitely a safety issue.

  Please add my voice to those in favor of the aforementioned left turn needed. Once River Bluff HS opens up, there will definitely be a necessity for it.

  I think they're relocating that intersection entirely. If/when they do, new turn signals are sure to be part of it. I would like to see the left turn signal before then, though.

  The proposal is to completely cut off Corley Mill from 378 there, put in a traffic circle at Corley Mill and Riverchase (the frontage to the Park-n-Ride), and route the traffic behind McDonalds and Taco bell. It would come out on 378 between Taco Bell and the new school/church on 378, not at Taco Bell. The traffic circle better be bigger than the ones they've put in recently in other locations, or the traffic will be no better. Also, the work needs to be done before the River Bluff school opens, but it likely won't. What a poor choice for the location of River Bluff.

The red porche the boy lives on sandspur road and the other speeders live on bub shumpert road my husband even called the police and gave them each speeders address nothing still hasn't been done when the coroner has to come out and pick a child up dead out of the road maybe something will be done then. the speeders pass so fast for a picture you can hear them coming because they spin the tires and rev the engine coming off the sand at bub shumpert road. JUST HIDE AND WATCH the police coming down the road in the morning does no good the speeders are working they have to wait til they get home then the fun begins.
