54-98 Greenhill Rd Media, PA 19063, USA - Upper Providence Township

When 252 / providence road is backed up at old state road, drivers turn left onto sandy bank and then right onto greenhill. Speed down greenhill blow through the stop sign at ridge and continue to speed down to old state road. Lots of kids in the neighborhood and people walking dogs. Almost had my door ripped off while exiting the car. Need speed bumps and sign that says local traffic only.

  Local traffic only signs can not be enforced. If you do not live on a private road you can not stop traffic on your road. Think about it everybody would want the road they live on closed down to everybody but the residents.

Drivers going way too fast. Need speed bumps Archived

341-499 Farnum Rd Media, PA 19063, USA - Upper Providence Township

The issue is mostly drivers using Farnum rd as a cut through to get to Media.Especially now the new Walmart is open. The road is only 25 mph and drivers are easily going 40 to 45. As I pulled out of my drive a person actually had the balls to go around and pass me.

  There are already speed bumps on Farnum, I have lived on the street for 25 years and have never had a problem with speeders. However, due to a number of grumpy residents around 10 years ago new stop signs were installed, then a few years back a speed bump was installed. If you saw the price tags for both those projects you would stop asking for additional assistance on the street. Maybe the price tags of these projects is why the upper providence police issue so many unnecessary citations, I guess they need to raise the money some how to keep the loud complaints of a small minority in our township quiet.

  I agree -- I also live on the street although further down towards Crum Creek - no problem with speeding at all, and as the other user stated there was already stop signs and speed bumps added to the street. You sound like a very unhappy person, someone had "the balls" to go around you while you were pulling out? You are aware that when you are reversing out of your driveway you are supposed to look for cars coming right??? Just from your attitude I believe I know exactly who you are, I and many others have heard about you and what you are doing to your neighbors, you should leave them alone they are a very nice family who have been a very positive influence to our community. You on the other hand never leave your mother's house.... get a life!!

  25 mph is rediculous. A more realistic limit should be applied.

  people dont do 25mph going up and down the hiil.
  people have to turn onto the roadway @ the bottom of the hill as well as the top & all those that make their own speed limit going up & down the hill make it impossible for people to trun onto the roadway. It is 25 mph for a reason & should be enforced daily!

  I don't know what any of you are talking about. Almost every morning I see someone pulled over at that intersection.
  
  What they need is a cop ON the ramp, not after the ramp, during rush hour.

  There was a cop sitting at the bottom of the hill last night with his lights off. I witnessed at least 5 cars pass by him going well above the posted speed limit. What good is that? For all I know, he was sleeping! Throw up a digital sign showing you just how fast you are traveling and post the speed limit right by this sign. Somebody please do something!
