Traffic calming on Highland Avenue between Eaton and Union. Letter submitted to Mayor and Team.

Thank you for installing a speed indicator on Highland driving north from Union. That's a good first step! Is it permanent? Maybe another one heading south from Eaton?

Good afternoon, I am aware of your letter addressing concerns for speeding on Highland Ave. The Complete Streets Plan will classify all our streets into "Street Types" and based on the street type classification, we will be provided a list of best practice tools that are used to increase safety. One of those tools may very well be speed humps like you are referencing. Admittedly, this plan will likely not be finalized until later next year, however your concerns are moving through the appropriate channels, and any action will be determined by relevant staff members. We truly appreciate understanding the lived experience, and welcome further feedback on areas surrounding your neighborhood. This plan will be community driven, therefore when future decisions on improvements are made, feedback from this process will rise to the forefront. Thanks again, Corey Gray, Senior Planner - City of Bethlehem
