First I appreciate the swift response made by the city a couple <br />of months ago Regarding the Belvin street closures, but the barriers installed at <br />the end of SA street has proven to be ineffective. I live on the corner of Wilson <br />and San Antonio and I invite any one of you to sit on my porch and watch as <br />cars speed past my house. Drivers use any of the side streets or use Bishop and <br />the fly down to the Mitchell intersection. I have 2 children, in fact there are 5 <br />houses on my block with young children and this situation is dangerous. We <br />do not allow or enjoy the front of our house anymore. While citizens on Belvin <br />street have a "private road" we cannot enjoy our neighborhood. This is not <br />fair and there must be a better solution I agree the Craddock detour "sounds" <br />like a great solution but it is long and inconvenient and most importantly <br />ignored. Below is a list of complaints organized and discussed on San Antonio <br />street. We look forward to a better solution. The traffic situation on San <br />Antonio Street is growing worse.
