Coming Soon to 46th Avenue


Traffic activity on 46th Avenue was a topic of conversation at last night's SPNA membership meeting. Several neighbors reported that drivers continue to speed on 46th Avenue despite the presence of children at McCabe Community Center and the student crosswalk at Utah Avenue. (As a resident on Murphy Road, I can vouch that this is also true on Murphy.)

Neighborhood Watch captain Doug Eckert has mentioned this to MNPD and to Metro Public Works. One of the city's radar scanner stations, the kind with the digital readout that informs drivers of their vehicle speed, will hopefully be positioned on 46th sometime later this month for a few days. There may also be more police attention to driving speeds in the neighborhood as well. Consider this fair warning if you tend to speed through the neighborhood.
