The Prosper Town Council meeting held on August 12, 2025, addressed several community concerns, particularly regarding traffic issues on Acacia Parkway. Residents expressed gratitude for recent transportation improvements but raised alarms about unintended consequences affecting their neighborhood.

A resident from Acacia Parkway highlighted three specific changes: the expansion of G Road to four lanes north of Highway 380, the installation of a traffic control device at G and Acacia Parkway, and the widening of the southbound Windsong left turn onto Highway 380. While these enhancements were welcomed by the Windsong Ranch community, they have led to increased traffic on Acacia Parkway as drivers from Denton County use the street as a shortcut to avoid congestion on Highway 1385 and Highway 380.

The resident noted that many drivers exceed the posted speed limit of 25 miles per hour, which poses safety concerns for residents engaged in outdoor activities. Acacia Parkway is not designed as a thoroughfare, and the increased traffic has diminished the quality of life for those living in the area.

In response to these concerns, the resident requested that the town consider implementing traffic calming measures, enhancing traffic control devices, or improving the intersection of G Road and Highway 380 to alleviate the situation. Suggestions included expanding left turn lane storage and creating traffic control similar to that in front of local retail centers.

The town manager acknowledged the issue and mentioned that the police department has been actively monitoring the area. The council did not address the specific comments during the meeting but indicated that they would consider the resident's concerns in future discussions.

Overall, the meeting underscored the ongoing dialogue between residents and the council regarding community safety and traffic management, with a focus on finding solutions to enhance the livability of Prosper's neighborhoods.
