Residents of Waukena Avenue in Oceanside are asking for the enforcement of the 8000lb weight limit to return to the block. Over the past decade, with lack of attention, it has become a commercial shortcut for truckers. On a daily basis, hundreds of violations take place. Our houses shake each time heavy container trucks and tractor trailers ignore the law. This has not only decreased the value of our homes but makes for dangerous driving conditions and no quality of life. We have three requests: 1.An effort be made to bring the situation under control. 2.This spring the Rockville Centre Police Department aided residents with a similar problem on Lincoln Avenue. They placed digital signs at each access point to warn drivers of the consequences. According to officials the signs were very effective in deterring violators. We are asking for these same signs to be placed on Waukena for a limited period of time. 3.We ask that the officers on duty in Oceanside every day be made aware of the problem and instructed to ticket any violator they may witness. It is very clear businesses want to use Waukena and you have heard their voice. But residents who pay their taxes want our block back. If you lived here, you would want swift action too. This is not a problem that cannot be solved.
