Mount Pleasant Residents Request Speed Humps After Near-Miss Incident
A Mount Pleasant neighborhood is urging the Town Council to install speed humps on a road with a history of speeding issues.
Residents of the Oaks at Marsh View have been requesting speed humps on Mossy Branch Way for nearly four years. According to Sandy Quinqe, the homeowner's association president, drivers use the roadway as a "cut-through" street, contributing to the problem.
"We had this horrible thing," said Brittany Webb, an Oaks at Marsh View resident. "Had we just gotten a speed bump that we'd been asking for, this could have slowed him down.
Despite three traffic studies, the neighbors' requests have been unsuccessful, prompting them to bring their concerns directly to the town council after a recent close call.
