Description
I am a resident on this stretch and see cars driving at wildly high speeds at all hours (sometimes inexplicably accelerating / drag racing) down this short stretch of road with high pedestrian and bike density due to the mixed residential zoning. This area has folks of all ages including our most vulnerable, including babies in strollers, young children and the elderly.
The city needs to urgently install speed bumps to control speeds the same way Bayview has speed bumps. Cars do not need the flexibility to go 30+ mph on this stretch of road. The same frankly applies to all of Broadway and Shoreline Dr, which have similar pedestrian density.

Has there ever been a speed watch/evaluation of the 900-300 block of Broadway and of the 3 way stop?? Many hardly even slow down. And Shoreline is a real race track, esp from the Broadway corner to Park Street. Someone should take an extended look. Or are we waiting for something really bad to happen??
