They should really lower the speed, or better yet, add another stop sign to Canada Road. Cars are clocked driving 65 miles an hour there in the morning and evening. Its not safe for kids to bicycle to or from school.

Putting a "Single-lane ahead" sign as the road narrows (near the big tree) on the way into the Glens would be more appropriate than the signs current position....in the exit direction ! Adding a "No Outlet" sign near the entrance would deter unnecessary motorists and cyclists looking to get across Hwy 280.

Randomly spaced flat top speed bumps have worked wonders in our neighborhood.

Folks(mostly neighbors) speeding in residential zones will not slow down until the potential of doing harm to their own vehicle comes into the picture.
