Greyhound Pass Lane Markings
Many of you have noticed the newly
painted white markings along Greyhound Pass. In the weeks to come these
will become our "pedestrian lanes," although we officially cannot use
that term as parking WILL be allowed between the white line and the curb
on both sides of the road. These lines are the result of a long
negotiation process with the City of Westfield in attempts to try to
slow traffic through our neighborhood.
For the past several
years, Westfield has wanted to paint a double yellow line down the
center of the road. And for years, the VF Board has been able to put
this off. With their last offer of the yellow center lines, came this
offer of the white lines as well. According to Westfield Public Works,
this will create a calming affect in that traffic will have to slow down
as it will have a more narrow lane to follow.
The Board put this
issue up for a community vote on our web-site in July of 2009, and our
community voted in favor of the lines (62% voting for the lines and 37%
voting against the lines.) At the August 2009 Farms Board meeting, the
Board voted in favor of this proposal as well. They also have continued
to discuss further traffic calming measures that our community may be
able to add to do even more to make Village Farms more of a neighborhood
and less of a thoroughfare. Among the items still being discussed are
speed humps and traffic circles.
Feel free to come to our next
Village Farms Board meeting on Tuesday, July 20th at 7p.m. in the
clubhouse for an update on these measures.
