Too easy to speed

From "Street Safety Concerns"

Go to the project

It is far too easy to speed as one approaches the city on 222 from the south. The road goes from 1 lane in each direction to essentially a highway (2 long, straight, wide, one-way lanes with no access) as it crosses the Conestoga, and there's no cross traffic or turns until after the speed limit 'drops' to 25. There's also no attempt to calm traffic at all until the bulb-outs on Furnace St.

I drove up that way the other day and found myself unintentionally speeding for a block or two of homes as I had my foot off the gas to slow down.

Some sort of traffic calming on or immediately after the bridge would be amazing. Maybe even a traffic circle at greenwood ave to force drivers out of their straight-line highway hypnosis.
