Description

The centerlines on the residential section of Fort Washington Ave (Limekiln to Welsh) are serving no purpose. Currently this street, one of the only street in the subdivision that has centerline markings, serve no purpose other than to promote this road as a continuation of the connected state route and to attract cut-thru traffic. The ADT for this section of the road falls well below the RECOMMENDED or REQUIRED ADTs. Secondly, with allowed on street parking, the lines only add to safety concerns when vehicles are parked and vehicles in travel cross the center markings. This and the current speed limit do not promote a residential environment for those that live along this road nor for those who walk and bike along this road. The township needs to address this issue and turn this road back into what it is, a RESIDENTIAL street.
