Acting on community feedback from the Belle Haven Traffic Calming Plan study, the City Council approved several transportation circulation improvements for the Onetta Harris Community Center/Beechwood School parking lot. 

These improvements are intended to address circulation and speeding concerns raised by Belle Haven residents and the Beechwood School. 

Earlier this fall, crew installed a new sidewalk on the south side of the parking lot, which runs parallel and adjacent to the Beechwood School. The sidewalk provides a pedestrian connection from the school to the community center and the pool. 

Additional improvements recently installed include:

• New pedestrian crosswalk striping to connect Beechwood School to the community center and Kelly Park
• New speed bumps to discourage vehicular speeding
• Additional striping and signage to reinforce one-way vehicular circulation
• New signage to discourage overnight parking

For any additional information or provide feedback, please contact the City’s Transportation Division.
