The City of St. Joseph has introduced a new traffic plan for Silver Beach to address congestion issues. City Manager Emily Hackworth noted that last year's plan improved traffic flow on Broad, Vine, and Water Streets but caused more traffic on neighboring streets. The new plan allows two-way traffic on Broad Street, with drivers able to enter Silver Beach or turn onto Lake Street. When exiting the beach, drivers must follow specific routes to alleviate traffic on Park Street. City officials are also asking pedestrians to use designated sidewalks. The new traffic pattern is expected to be in place by Memorial Day.
