The neighborhood sits right next to Oasis Elementary South, Oasis Middle School and Oasis High School.Traffic can really pile up with parents dropping off kids at school, school buses coming through and even dump trucks passing by.Some neighbors say drivers use the SW 25th Avenue route to cut through between Surfside Boulevard, Gleason Parkway and Oasis Boulevard.City leaders say this is just one of several neighborhood roads that may need changes.The Transportation Advisory Commission will review a list of possible solutions.Those ideas include adding centerline striping along SW 25th Ave. and SW 28th Terrace, more signs to warn drivers about sharp turns, speed humps, and closing the median opening from Surfside Boulevard SW 25th Place.City leaders say this street is just an example and the goal is to come up with a plan to calm traffic across Cape Coral neighborhoods.The Transportation Advisory Commission will meet at 9 a.m. Wednesday, Jan. 21.DOWNLOAD\u202fthe free\u202fGulf Coast News app\u202ffor your latest news and alerts on breaking news, weather, sports, entertainment, and more on your phone or tablet.
