Speed bumps - from Erin Furr

"If you are interested in speed tables on your street see the attached documents from the Town of Chapel Hill. In the past it was discussed with Kumar from Public Works that Southern Village streets should be looked at on the whole – not on a one-on-one basis – as a speed table on one street will only drive cars to adjacent streets without speed tables.


However, since they are putting in a speed table on Westside Drive, it is apparent Kumar is now able to look at speed tables individually. If you would like a speed table on your street here’s what to do:

1. Fill out a request form for traffic calming (please visit www.southernvillage.org for the forms) 2. The town will send you a petition for your street to sign (if you don’t get it in a week you will have to follow up)
Please e-mail Kumar with Public works kneppalli@townofchapelhill.org and the mayor and commissioners urging them to look at this issue immediately mayorandcouncil@townofchapelhill.org.

Please do not send requests to me. They have to be sent to Public Works."
