Cranberry Begins Motorist Slowdown Campaign

CRANBERRY TOWNSHIP, PA — As kids return to the classroom this week, drivers around the township will have plenty of reminders to slow down and keep an eye out for them.

The signs will be moved every day to different neighborhoods. Data gathered will be used as the basis for making changes to the program .

Participating neighborhoods include: Bristol Creek, Clearbrook, Cranberry Heights, Cranberry Park Place, Cranberry West, Crystal Springs, Fox Run, Franklin Crossing, Freedom Woods, Goehring Road, Hampshire Woods, Havenwood, Hazelwood Farms, Hunter's Creek, Marshall Woods, Meeder Neighborhood, Oakview Estates, Orchard Park, Pinehurst, Scenic Ridge, Shadow Creek, Walden Pond, Deer Run, Norberry Court, Spring Meadows, The Glen at Woodside, Villas of Isleworth, Wakefield Estates, Winchester Farms, Winchester Lakes, Woodbine Estates, Woodlands.
