Origin
Summary
I am writing to request support to rescind the current westbound right-turn prohibitions along Shuter Street from Poulett Street to Seaton Street.
Upon thorough review conducted by Transportation Services, it is concluded that the existing no-right-turn prohibitions on Shuter Street, originally intended to deter illicit activity, have ceased to be effective. Lifting these prohibitions would allow residents more options to travel between work and home.
