SEMINOLE â Parents of students at Orange Grove Elementary School pleaded with city council members Feb. 23 for help with what they considered very dangerous traffic conditions on streets surrounding the school.
They described long queues of vehicles, blocked sightlines, and near-collisions with students around the school just south of 66th Avenue and 104th Street.
Leah Ryan described how, when traffic backed up, no one could see around the cars. Her family lives one block from the elementary school, and she said when she walks across the intersection at 103rd Street, it is difficult to see vehicles turning onto 103rd. She would like her older son, who is in junior high school, to walk her elementary age child to the school, but âit scares meâ for them to deal with the traffic by themselves. Some cars go around the line of cars entering the school and donât slow down, she said.
