A joint meeting of the Streets and Sanitation and Safety Committees was held last week to review facts and devise plans for the high amounts of traffic on Cardinal Drive which connects to the Walmart parking lot. The matter was originally broached by residents of Cardinal Drive and they collected signatures in support of having some sort of measure implemented to stem the tide of vehicle traffic in the area. According to residents, it creates potentially hazardous conditions for both residents and pedestrians as there is no sidewalk and a great deal of traffic.
