Traffic Safety Program
As part of our effort to keep the streets of Avalon safe for everyone, we have been more closely monitoring the busier intersections throughout the city. During this time, we have warned and advised numerous drivers regarding the legal requirement for all drivers to make complete stops behind the limit lines. We will also be monitoring for parents allowing children to drive golf carts illegally. We only have a few more days until the children return to school and we want to keep them as safe as possible. Please drive carefully.
