Lanvale Rd has become the Indianapolis 500. People are using it as an cut-through/alternate to Hwy 17 and frequently going 60+ mph. With all of the developments along Lanvale Rd., it has become very difficult to enter/exit any of the subdivisions off of Lanvale, especially during the work commute hours. At the very minimum, the speed limit needs to be lowered.

ReplyWith as few alternatives that are available between Hwy 74/76 to Hwy 17, Lanvale has surpassed its designed load. The city with help from the county/state need to "seriously" widening the full length of Lanvale Road.

ReplyThe Hwy 74/76 is a main road for tractor trailer trucks and large industrial vehicles in and out of the county . This should be considered when lights and u turns are placed on the road. Transfer trucks and large double tractor trailer trucks can’t make the u turns and stoping with the weight carried is almost impossible. Since 74/76 is a main road to transfer loads to and out of the county to the ports and around in our area there should be a consideration for overpasses and access roads so trucks traffic can move smoothly and avoid accidents.

This yield sign needs to be a stop sign instead. So many people think the lane merges into its own lane on River Rd SE, and almost cause accidents with vehicles travelling from under the overpass.

ReplyTraffic is backing up like never before recently in the am and pm, even lunch rush hours! Another indicator of over development without the infrastructure to support it!

We need a wider turn lane here or a traffic circle at the intersection by Reflections as heavy traffic is casing a backup on Brunswick Forest Parkway which is dangerous with the speed of oncoming vehicles.

ReplyIf left-turn traffic onto Low Country Blvd is backed up, vehicles traveling NW from Low Country Blvd onto Broadhaven Dr cannot see traffic in the right lane of Brunswick Forest Pkwy.

Need a connection from these neighborhoods to the Leland Town Center. This eliminates cars on 133, 74/76 and 17.

ReplyNeed a connection from these neighborhoods to the Leland Town Center to help elimaye heavy traffic on 17.
Like Liked 4 timesDefinitely need an evacuation route out of these neighborhoods to the Leland town center
Like Liked 2 timesThis connection to the shopping area and living communities should include walking / bike paths and or lanes. These should connect to the planned crossing of 17 at Ploof Rd.
Planning should include non vehicular traffic. Without doing this you are planning to exclude b walking and bikes as viable means of accessing shopping / dining areas.

ReplyGood point. New Pointe eastbound can turn right and use traffic circle to get to 17. New Pointe westbound who want to cross over or turn left can instead exit at Gateway Blvd and use traffic circle.
Like Liked 1 timeThis was absolutely my thought too. Why does traffic continue to back up leaving Walmart when it could simply flow if everyone had to turn right leaving Walmart. Just turn right and go around the traffic circle.
Like Liked 1 timeInvestigate alternate traffic pattern flows. Need a median to block New Pointe similar to Ploof next to Aldi

The Colbert Place subdivision has no sidewalks. The street is so narrow that two cars parked on the street across from each other blocks emergency vehicals and trash pickup. My security camera has picked up people walking in the street almost being hit at night and during the day. The community was promised sidewalks once building was finished and there has been no action yet. Children, babystrollers being forced to walk in the street is so unsafe. Please look at getting sidewalks installed for safety.

ReplyStop the right turn on red. People are driving 60+mph and too many are turning and misjudging the speed of oncoming traffic causing accidents.
Like Liked 3 timesAt the U-turn, people run the red light constantly and oncoming northbound traffic comes flying over the hill at 60+ miles an hour and often run the red light. This is a fatal accident waiting to happen.
Like Liked 2 timesThere should be a traffic light at this intersection due to the speeding traffic on 17 and cars from the neighborhoods trying to enter from either side of 17.
Like Liked 2 timesHwy 17 is a major road and has been for 150 yrs in and out the county. The large tracker trailer trucks need to road to drive to the ports and make deliveries in the county. There are too many lights and not enough access roads in the area to connect to 74/76 or I 140 . When accidents happen tracffic has no way of being detour in some points from Leland 133/17/74/76 corridors or 87S /17 S corridors or 87N 17N in towncreek from Lanvelle to 17NS till the 74/76 corridors. Not enough consideration is being made for large tractor trailer and delivery vehicles, emergency evacuation and impact of failing roads that were small axillary roads.
Like Liked 2 timesGiven all the new apartments and homes being build on Kay Todd road, a major disaster is at hand. Without traffic lights, traffic on Kay Todd will back right up to apartments. The trouble is RT17 will become the road of lights, which will lead to more traffic congestion. If a hurricane occurs how will people be able to leave in an orderly fashion?

We need a Pedestrian Crossing bridge here so that people can walk, bike or take a LSV to the restaurants and shops. Would be nice to go across the street without having to get in a car.

ReplyI love to walk and would like to be able to walk to Harris Teeter, UPS, or the Leland Cultural Arts Center. But I live across Ovean Highway E, and walking across Ocean Highway E is simply not at all safe to do. We need walkways and lights for pedestrians trying to get across that very busy road.
Like Liked 0 timesEnforce the doors of traffic before you decide to put a crosswalk. The speed approaching that area is deadly at times.
Like Liked 0 timesTraffic on 17 between Wal Mart and Lowe’s is very dangerous now. Cars go way too fast, ignore traffic signals and change lanes with no notice! Fix these ridiculous traffic patterns BEFORE continuing this out of control growth and development. The infrastructure to support current population is lacking and surely not able to support more development in the same corridor!

Enlarge roundabout if possible. Do not make it a 4-way stop. Do not install a traffic light. It works, and keeps traffic moving well. Anything other than a roundabout will be too slow. However, if the circle could be enlarged to the size of a proper circle it would work better and be safer. Too many BF parkway vehicles blow through the circle because it feels to the driver like the roadway goes straight.

ReplyAdd a pedestrian crossing button so flashing lights will warn drivers that a pedestrian is entering the crosswalk
