Burr Ridge officials considering proposal to decrease the number of drivers in the Chasemoor subdivision.

The Burr Ridge Village Board approved a plan — likely to change — aimed at curbing traffic density in the Chasemoor subdivision.

None of the projects should cost much, and Walter said downtown business funds will pay for the project. In addition, he pointed out if the proposal — which did pass unanimously — doesn’t work, the village could go another direction without too much difficulty. Besides the no turning signs, Walter proposed adding no heavy trucks signs along the way as well as more general signs noting road curves and pedestrian crossways.

Mayor Gary Grasso said there are some 500 residents in the Chasemoor area, meaning it’s fairly densely populated and the residential road is also one of the busiest in the village because people use it as a cut through.Grasso did take into consideration snow plows and garbage trucks, but Police Chief John Madden said that so far as he is aware, the only exceptions he could offer would be for emergency vehicles.
