As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.

Penndot Does Not Agree With Traffic Complaints
On November 4, 2010, Penndot sent a letter to the Township explaining why it does not agree that traffic improvements are needed at:
Earlington and Devon Roads Brookline Boulevard Lawrence Road Lawrence and Ellis Roads
Click here to read the letter from Penndot.
I am very disappointed in Penndot's response, and have spoken with State Rep. Greg Vitali in an effort to address this reply.
For example, according to Penndot, "Based on the applicable engineering parameters evaluated, a reduction in the speed limit [on Lawrence Road] is not justified. The 85 percentile speed on this roadway is 40 miles per hour." As a resident who lives near and walks along Lawrence Road all the time, I can attest that this conclusion is simply belied by reality. Penndot's similar responses about other areas in the Township are not persuasive. I will continue to pressure Penndot to meet with Township officials and to try to implement meaningful measures to combat the traffic problems that plague us. |
