  sorry to hear that Prospect Park is having the same issues as Lester. I hope to God something is done to slow traffic down before one of our kids gets hit. The State Police are always in the area, why can't they, PPP or TTP do something to be alittle proactive.

Cars are speeding up & down 17th Ave Archived

1600-1698 Yagle Ave Prospect Park, PA 19076, USA - Prospect Park

Young drivers are speeding up & down 17th avenue. The speed limit is 25mph, & cars are going in excess of 25 mph. I put orange traffic cones on the street while kids are outside to let drivers know kids are playing.

  You are right about speeding and I am voting for this to be fixed, but I don't think drivers connect "orange traffic cones" with "kids are playing."

Speeding between 13th Ave and 17th Ave on Lincoln Ave in Prospect Park, PA Archived

Lincoln Avenue Between 13th And 17th Avenues - Prospect Park

25 mph (residential) should be enforced! Prospect Park could make loads of money on Lincoln ave, with the speeding between 13th and 17th. Drivers like to go 40 plus in that area!

12th Ave To Mac Dade Blvd Prospect Park, PA - Prospect Park

Speed limit has to be lowered please, or put in speed bumps. Too much traffic and it is residential.

Traffic light needed. Open

Sylvan Ave And Amosland Road Norwood Pa - Prospect Park

At the entrance to Interboro High School on Amosland Road, this intersection backs up with traffic on Sylvan Avenue trying either to go straight into the school lot, or left to go towards Chester Pike with parents driving their children to school. It also backs up after a train has come as it's the only road out. Plus there is a lot of speeding on Amosland Road, even though it is a school zone. A traffic light would work well here. A high accident area also.

  Does this forum do anything or is it just a venue to vent? Does anyone know what we should do to get this action taken? I would appreciate any input at this point. Thank you.

  I always drive the speed limit on Amosland Rd by the high school I take that way to Mcdade everyday, I also always allow people waiting at the stop signs take there turns a light or sign would be great here because wile I have patients to allow people to turn and drive the speed limit it doesnt stop other drives from tailgate me (at night flashing high beams) or honking their horns. A light would do this street justice. In fact wile driving home from work I have all most been ran off the road all because I dont do 35-45 down the street

  I know Norwood & Prospect Park have enough police on their payroll. How about having them direct traffic in the morning. I know this would require work on their part.
  
  Patti, try going to a boro council meeting or school board meeting to voice your concerns. Sadly the only way I think the traffic light wish will come true is through Penndot

  I graduated in 09' but I remember this problem. When I found this forum this is the first thing I looked for. WE NEED SOMETHING THERE even a police officer directing trafic. This intersection is so dangerouse. Not to mention the slew of kids who are either to tired to look where they are walking or just think traffice will bend around them. unfortunately I dont think this forum is taken serioudly because all tickets that I have seen are still open

speeding traffic Open

Lincoln Ave Prospect Park, PA 19076, USA - Prospect Park

A light should be placed here to slow down the speeding traffic. When the traffic is moving down 420 from Chester Pike and they see the light is green at 4th and 420 they pick up their speed and are now going over 40+.

  The speeding continues all along Lincoln Ave. (Rt. 420) Estimate 40+mph! Both ways, from Chester Pike and from Mac Dade Blvd. It is pretty near impossible to cross over to a neighbors because hardly any drivers slow down. This is something the local state reps should put a stop to. Post 25 mph all along 420 in Prospect Park and have it enforced before more children or senior citizens are injured or killed. Please stop the speeding idiocy! There are residents on that road and the increase in cars and speeding are outrageous! Please help us with this problem! ( speed bumps maybe, where there are no traffic lights) Also, it would decrease traffic accidents on that road.

STOP SIGN Open

650-669 13th St Prospect Park, PA 19076, USA - Prospect Park

No one stops for the stop sign on the corner of 13th and Pennsylvania Ave and cars are constantly speeding down 13th at very high rate of speed. There many kids who play on this street and its only a matter of time until someone gets hit by a car.

  I live on 13th and can not allow my children to play out front. The cars are always flying as if it is a highway. I constantly see people flying right through that stop sign. ALWAYS.

  based on personal observations and comments here, nearly everyone treats stop signs with white borders as optional!

add lane Open

1-199 Wanamaker Ave Prospect Park, PA 19076, USA - Prospect Park

A turning lane needs to be added for 2 reasons. 1) if a driver needs to turn around they can. Right now they have to wait until they get up to 420 and 13. Most turn around in my driveway or my neighbors. 2) With a left lane to turn around a driver can either enter the Historial Site/Park or enter and park at the John Hines Wildlife Park.
This would keep cars from coming into the residential area. Safety and convenience.

Thru Traffic Open

Put speed bumps in - this has always been a cut thru for traffic going to Rt. 420. Many children on this block.

  Well I scratched but it hasn't changed my opinion. Once again, if you live on a street like Prospect Ave. where people cut through to get to Rt 420, you didn't do your homework when you bought or rented your house. Sometimes in life, it isn't everybodys fault, it is yours if you weren't smart enough to realize this. Move back to whatever state you came from and quit blaming everyone for your problems.

  Sounds like Rickysdad still needs time to grow up. Poor Ricky to have such a negative father. Sounds like you may have some troubles yourself. You should leave that homeowner/renter alone and let that person have their own opinions. This site is not for your garbage.

  Fishman..you fault the police department, so you NEVER see them on patrol ? Where are you at 415am..at 650am..at 113pm ? Just because you don't see them, doesn't mean that they aren't there.
  If I remember correctly didn't you have a real pain in the tail on 12th Avenue ? The white Prislum (Prison+Muslim) slinging drugs to kids ? Where's he at now..oh that's right..prison. Don't sqwauk about what you don't know about. As for the "cops" sitting in the alley..bogus

  Lafayette has the same issue with the addition of stop signs frequently being "rolling stops".
  
  Gotta love the idiots that ignore the "One Way" signs also that use the same streets to reverse the "cut-off" to go from 420 to Chester Pike.
  
  The Prospect Police officers do have their hands full lately.

  I agree the speed bumps should be installed before school starts to avoid a possible child getting hit by a car or worse,dont wait for the worse to happen and then install speed bumps and dont talk about money to install the speed bumps because there is no way money can replace a life,just do it.
