County agrees to install speed humps on Crooked River Road

            Speeding on Crooked Rover Road near Carrabelle may soon be a thing of the past.

County commissioners this week agreed to install 4 speed humps on the Crooked River Road.

The action is being taken at the request residents of St. James Bay.

In fact the residents recently hired an engineer to do a traffic study on the road which found that traffic moves at about 70 miles an hour on that road.

The engineer recommended installing 4 speed humps in specific areas in the St. James Bay Golf Course area.

The residents of St. James Bay have even agreed to pay for ½ the cost of installation.

The total estimated cost for installation, including warning signs, is just over 11 thousand dollars, so the county and the residents will each pay about $5600 dollars.
