Thanks for reporting your request to the City of Sammamish. It is being reviewed and routed to the correct department.

Hello, any update on this.

Hi, I am also a resident in this same community. Please let us know how we can make our street safer. There are a lot of little children in the neighborhood and we need to make sure they are safe while playing outdoors from automobiles traffic.

We need a system to mitigate traffic speeding in our area. Completely agree with this request.

I also support this request…with the neighborhood now fully occupied, the number of children playing outside has increased and this signage is needed urgently to keep the area safe and kid-friendly.

I live in this neighborhood and support this request. There are a lot of smaller kids in this neighborhood and having mechanisms to mitigate risk and ensure safety is critical.

Hi there, I live in the same community and definitely agree with this request.

Is there a way for the city of Sammamish to address this urgently? This community has grown at least five-fold in the last two years with many young children and this has become an urgent need.

Hi,
I am also a resident in the Dalton Park community. People drive very fast while the kids are playing out. Please create a couple of speed bumps and slow down sign.

Issue 10774836 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue.

Good afternoon, thank you for your request to the city. We apologize for the delayed response as the city's traffic team has seen significant turnover in the last year and a half.

This location at Dalton Park already has "Slow Down, Kids Playing" signs installed in several locations in the neighborhood. Unfortunately the city is unable to install speed bumps as speed bumps have been shown through numerous engineering studies to to be ineffective at controlling speeds and causes more issues with noise and emergency vehicle accessibility, amongst others.

Please keep in mind if you see repeat speeders, you may report them by calling the King County Sheriff's Office 24-hour communications line at 206-296-3311, or by reporting online (for non-emergent crimes) at this web address: https://www.kingcounty.gov/depts/sheriff/on-line-reporting/on-line-reporting.aspx. You may also consider notifying your HOA of speeding issues, as they can then send notices to all homeowners in the neighborhood.

Please also kindly keep in mind city-owned public roadways should not be considered safe play areas for children, even if it is a residential road. The most well-marked signage on roadways cannot account for drivers who are distracted and not paying attention to the road.

Your request to the City of Sammamish has been closed at this time. Please let us know if you have any questions by commenting on the request. Thank you!
