4 issues in public safety with high priority
Speeding and traffic safety on residential streets
The road serving the site is roughly 16.5 feet of pavement in a 50-foot right-of-way, too narrow for two vehicles to pass comfortably, and it hosts a busy school bus stop. Residents fear added facility traffic endangers children who walk to the bus stop.
Medic One EMS funding sustainability
Murrysville Medic One is pushing its subscription drive and may ask Council to revisit the $5-per-resident fee that hasn't changed in five to six years, as costs rise.
Four-way stop at School Road and North Hills Road
The long-awaited stop sign at School Road and North Hills Road is moving: the traffic engineer is marking sign locations, and one-call utility notifications come next before installation.
Turnberry Court stop sign safety
A resident reports drivers routinely running the stop sign at a sharp turn near a school bus stop with 7-9 elementary kids boarding daily. She asked for double speed bumps; Council will raise it with the police chief.
