Residents of a longstanding neighborhood are raising concerns over proposed traffic changes linked to a new development project. During a recent government meeting, a local resident highlighted that the introduction of traffic from the development, which includes 44 lots, could significantly disrupt the quiet community, particularly affecting children and elderly residents.

The resident emphasized that while one proposed plan (1842) restricts traffic access to the I-44 service road, another plan (2016) would funnel traffic directly onto Huawei Drive, a route preferred by the community for its tranquility. The resident noted that many neighbors are opposed to the direct introduction of traffic onto their streets, expressing a desire for vehicles to utilize the service road instead.

In discussions with Councilwoman Nikki Neis, the resident is advocating for a redesign of the Braniff Drive intersection to mitigate traffic impacts on both Braniff and Huawei Drive. The community's primary concern remains the potential increase in traffic and its implications for safety and quality of life in the neighborhood.
