Heavy alley traffic

Posted in: Washington Park East
Does anyone else have this problem? The delivery trucks for the merchants (mostly food and beverage trucks) turn on the less busier streets and drive throught the alleys to avoid backing up traffic as they try to turn into the alleys behing the Old S. Gaylord shops. Our alley get heavy truck traffic and has frequent and enormous potholes. What can we do to get the trucks out of the alleys or get someone to repair the potholes caused by these heavy vehicles?

We have the same thing. Its scarry how those trucks move - a child wouldnt stand a chance. Often they just park in the alley and block access for 5 - 10 minutes. Very frustrating when you have a meeting to go to.
I dont suppose we can legislate against a public alley but what about speed bumps?
