Instead of waiting for traffic lights, some cars in Orlando are using a neighborhood road to cut through busy areas, even if they are entering the road from the wrong direction.

Lynda Monroe lives in a community just north of Curry Ford Road and wrote in to us this week.

"There are two 'Do Not Enter' signs at the end of my road (Corbett Lane) and nobody pays attention to them. Dozens of cars speed right past them and drive the wrong way. Something needs to be done to stop people from breaking the law," she wrote.

Lynda has lived in her same house off Corbett Lane since 1961. Corbett Lane is a small residential street just north of Curry Ford. There is only one entrance to the road on the north side, but Lynda says most cars do not care.

"Well, there's people that come down the wrong way, off and on all day," she said.

She is tired of cars entering her small road from the wrong way to cut through her street to larger roads on either side.

"Eventually, people start coming down, one after the other and it's like a highway around here," said Lynda.

So, now the question is: How do things change for the residents of this community?

In her opinion, Lynda would like the "Do Not Enter" signs taken out.

After a little digging, News 13 found out that the road lies within the City of Orlando's limits. When News 13 contacted city officials, they said the road is technically not a one-way street.

However, the south side of Corbett Lane is one-lane exit only southbound road and it has been in place like that for the last 10 years.

The city said that upon neighborhood consensus, that it would consider removing the signs, but also are warning residents who might encourage more cut through traffic.

To widen the road to allow two-way traffic, the City of Orlando would need to relocate the curbing and paving, including this concrete barrier.

Again, city officials are willing to do this, but also want to warn residents that this would foster northbound cut through traffic.

At this time, they are sending Traffic Engineering over to the area to collect more data before options are presented to the local residents.

"I'm sure eventually if something's not done, and the speeding that comes down here, something is going to happen,” said Lynda. “Someone is going to lose control and run into something."

Stay tuned and thanks for your submission Lynda.
