Letter to the editor: Rogers Road needs attention

In regard to the traffic and speed of cars on Rogers Road, I have concerns for the safety of residents on said road. There are at least three who have mobility issues. It is a challenge to cross the road to my mailbox!

A survey was done in 2005. The results of said survey indicated a total of 955 vehicles passing in a 12-hour period, 664 northbound and 291 southbound. Nothing much has changed.

Perhaps disabled or no thru traffic signs would be helpful.

The other solution would be to make the street a dead end as it was when we purchased our home in 1979.
