MILWAUKEE — To Project: Drive Safer, our year-long commitment to making your street safer.
Milwaukee County leaders are holding a Safe Streets Road Show to hear from all community members.
Two took place on Wednesday alone, including in Oak Creek and Kosciuszko Park on the south side.
Milwaukee County received more than $1 million in federal and state grants to make our roads safer. In this phase of the project, the money is being used to organize these community meetings with a consulting firm. Once they hear from community members, county leaders can create an action plan.
Many showed up on the south side, to bring solutions to safety issues they believe is on National, Oklahoma, and Greenfield avenues.
Sebastian Becerra recommended, "Reducing speed limits on certain streets maybe 45 to 40 miles per hour, and 35 to 30 miles per hour."
