With schools now in session, police are hearing complaints about increased speeding.One resident, William Riggs, who lives on Roy Avenue in Warrenton, took his complaints to the board of aldermen and chief of police.“(On Roy Avenue) there is a 90-degree turn. From about 7 to 8 in the morning, until whatever time the elementary school gets out of school and high school gets out, Roy is the Indianapolis 500,” Riggs said during the Aug. 16 meeting. “I’m proposing to put up a stop sign, if it’s feasible to do. Anything to slow them down.”Roy Avenue has two 90-degree curves that are not part of an intersection. It is also a shortcut from home to school for some area drivers.Riggs said drivers are speeding and they’re not paying attention.Mailboxes have been knocked down in the past, he said, and it’s just a matter of time before something more serious happens.“One of these days, there’s going to be a head-on collision right in my front yard,” he said.The risky driving seems to be going on when school is starting and when it’s being dismissed.Police Chief Greg Houdyshell said police have ramped up patrols on Roy to try to slow people down.City officials are reluctant to put in stop signs or take other measures to slow drivers down, at least just yet.Mayor Eric Schleuter said he would like police to monitor traffic for two to four weeks.In other board of aldermen news, the police department got the OK to replace its tasers at a cost of $6,914.The department also will convert its radios for improved communications between officers at longer distances. The new repeater-radio system costs $3,089.The department is raising money for the Special Olympics, first with a car wash on Saturday, Aug. 27, at Fast Lane Central on Highway 47 in Warrenton, and then at Over the Edge St. Louis, where participants repel 17 stories down the side of the Hyatt Regency Hotel in St. Louis.School Zone
