To the Editor:

I just read the article Gina Scala wrote on the 10th Street traffic in Ship Bottom (“Traffic and Speeding Continue to Plague Shore Avenue Areas,” 7/15). I’d like to add that here on West 11th Street we have the opposite traffic problem on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays.

People leaving the Island make the illegal turn from Central Avenue onto 11th, thinking that they will escape the traffic backup on the corner of 11th and Long Beach Boulevard.
