The first block of Rosa east of Hampton, that's a dead end. When you get to the end, you have to do about a six point u-turn to get back out of the street.<BR/><BR/>On Bonita, the street connects with the (2-way) alley behind Woodbine Court.<BR/><BR/>In fact, as we were entering eastbound Bonita from the Woodbine alley, we had to wait for a car heading westbound on Bonita to turn onto the alley in front of us. <BR/><BR/>See? We were traffic-calmed on our very first drive down that street!Rick Bonaschhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10825477678253483191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14698828.post-75242798646975580522007-03-26T09:59:00.000-07:002007-03-26T09:59:00.000-07:00of course the street is calm it is a dead end. wh...of course the street is calm it is a dead end. who would drive down that street unless you live there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14698828.post-91059538182149523362007-03-26T08:30:00.000-07:002007-03-26T08:30:00.000-07:00According to the streetsblog site, 2-way traffic m...According to the streetsblog site, 2-way traffic may actually reduce traffic volumes on neighborhood streets because it has a tendency to lower the amount of cut through traffic in favor of local neighborhood traffic.Rick Bonaschhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10825477678253483191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14698828.post-80530020095817117282007-03-26T06:47:00.000-07:002007-03-26T06:47:00.000-07:00I agree.

It was out of control. I am convinced that 2-way traffic would have slowed it down, but increased the amount of through traffic. Very interesting.Mark Grothhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15778135869139492251noreply@blogger.com
