The City of Nashville held a traffic calming meeting on July 17, 2025, focusing on safety measures for Westboro Drive. The meeting gathered community members and city officials to discuss concerns about traffic flow and pedestrian safety in the area.

One of the key discussions centered around the absence of stop signs as a potential solution for traffic issues. A resident from Alamo Place expressed surprise that stop signs were not included in the toolkit for traffic calming measures. This comment highlighted a broader concern among residents about the effectiveness of current strategies to manage speeding and improve safety for pedestrians.

City officials acknowledged the feedback and emphasized the importance of community input in shaping traffic management plans. They noted that while various tools are available for traffic calming, the decision to implement specific measures depends on a range of factors, including traffic studies and safety assessments.

The meeting concluded with a commitment from city officials to further evaluate the community's suggestions and explore the feasibility of incorporating stop signs and other measures to enhance safety on Westboro Drive. Residents were encouraged to continue sharing their thoughts as the city moves forward with its traffic calming initiatives.
