After speaking with the Civic League I figured we had enough support to request the city of VA Beach lower the speed limit from 25 MPH anywhere from 15-20 MPH throughout Aeries on the Bay. We have a lot of children playing here, the roads (especially Aeries Way) are very tight and we have an incredible amount of traffic due to the public beach access on Rookery Way. Many cars have been hit, many visitors speed, and we should do something to ensure our children can stay safe while playing. Your signature would be greatly appreciated as we need a large majority of the neighborhood to support this. Share the link so everyone can see it.

Currently the 25 MPH speed limit doesn't qualify us for speed tables. The lowering of the speed limit will assist us when we ask the city to conduct a study of the roads here. I believe and am under the assumption that we can all agree that 25 MPH feels more like going about 70 with as packed as we are back in here.

There is no financial obligation to signing this petition. If the link you receive requests a donation please let us know.

The max safe speed should be 10 or 15. Or use all-way-stops at every intersection.

This is a great neighborhood, with great families living in it. It does serve the local communities as one of the only public beach access with available public parking. There have been many circumstances in which people who don’t understand how tight the street gets, due to the over crowded parking, will drive seemingly recklessly as they are simply going the speed limit. Lowering the speed limit, or even adding speed bumps will save someone’s life

YES, please!!! People fly through the neighborhood and it’s dangerous! I live on Aeries Way and 25 MPH is way too fast!!

Streets are simply too narrow especially with parking on both sides for the current speed limit

Wholeheartedly concur. This speed limit will better protect the citizens in this neighborhood as well as the numerous visitors who access the beach through this neighborhood. Recommend the city pursue measures, including speed bumps, to better mitigate the risks to this this community.

Do not know what the qualifications are for speed tables,but based on what I’ve seen the people who tend to speed are going to continue to do so unless there is something physical to slow them down , either scheduled police presence which is probably not possible,or speed tables.Shady Oaks is a prime example
