Reversed traffic plan for Onondaga Park area noted
Neighbors on the Southwest Side welcome a trial reversal of one way traffic near Onondaga Park after years of safety concerns. Trucks will be driven uphill past the Robinson home to curb speed and cut through traffic while entrances on Summit Avenue will exit only and two park-end entrances will close. County officials, the Parks Department, and the Onondaga Park Association say the plan aims to keep through traffic out and protect pedestrians and park users.
