The St. Johns County Neighborhood Traffic Calming Program had its second public meeting at Fruit Cove Middle School last night, March 6 at 7 p.m. Over 50 Julington Creek residents attended the meeting, which intended to propose and discuss possible solutions to the speeding problem throughout the Julington Creek neighborhood.

-The first proposed solution involved intersection improvements around the neighborhood, consisting of pavement markings and striped stop bars, speed feedback signs and 6” yellow and white edge lines.

-The second solution proposed installing an approximated 11 speed humps on numerous roads in the Julington Creek area. The humps would be 22 feet long, and could reduce overall speeds anywhere from five to nine miles per hour. It was mentioned that these humps could possibly cause some drainage issues.
