By design, the roads in Brighton Park Village are narrow and often there are long stretches without stop signs. Our neighborhood is home to many families, and many children. There are very few "children at play" signs reminding drivers to be alert for young children dashing into the street. We do our best to look out for our children and our neighbors children and ensure they cross the street safely, but all it takes is one mistake and one driver not paying attention.

A 25 mph speed limit is simply too fast on these narrow roads. We are demanding a speed limit reduction in Brighton Park Village to 15 mph. We will continue to do our part to teach our children road safety. We ask that the county do theirs to slow drivers down.
