Cranberry Readies Speed Awareness Campaign

CRANBERRY TOWNSHIP, PA - With school about to let out for the summer, Cranberry’s two-phase, spring-fall driver speed awareness campaign in residential neighborhoods is getting ready to ramp up.

Last year, yard signs, speed trailers, and traffic counters, together with increased police patrols took place in 31 neighborhoods across Cranberry Township. This year, 44 local homeowner associations signed up for the free program which runs from June 7 to June 21 this year.

The program – build around a nationwide campaign theme designed by the Kansas-based Keep Kids Alive Drive 25 Foundation and developed locally by Cranberry’s Homeowners Association Forum – is timed to raise driver awareness of Cranberry’s 25 miles an hour residential speed limit at the end of Seneca Valley’s school year. The program repeats at the start of the fall semester, from August 27 to September 10.

Yard signs will be available for pickup starting May 29; radar speed signs will be rotated among the participating neighborhoods.

Neighborhoods signed up for the 2019 campaign include:

Autumn Hill, Clearbrook, BellevuePark, Blue Ridge, Bristol Creek, Clearbrook, Cranberry Heights, Cranberry West, Crystal Springs, Deer Run Condominiums, Ehrman Farms, Franklin Crossing, Freedom Woods, Glen Eden, Glenbrook Manor, Grandshire, Havenwood, Hazelwood Farms, Highland Village, Hunters Creek, Kingsbrook, Marshall Heights, Marshall Woods, Mystic Ridge, Orchard Park, Park Place, Pinehurst, Preserve, Scenic Ridge, Settler’s Gove, Shadow Creek, Spring Meadows, Stonefield/Farmview, The Crossings, The Glen at Woodside, Timberline, Winchester Farms, Winchester Lakes, Woodbine Estates, and Woodlands.
