No kidding, this became evident as soon as TV was extended south of CR 466. Of course at the time when it was initially built golf carts were only permitted on roads between sunrise and sunset and no one thought that Morse would become a major north-south artery. Folks who wish to complain now have to understand that Morse Blvd has been a county road for years and the developer has no responsibility for fixing the problem.

After years of study and complaining a few years ago, Sumter County made some improvements.(widening bike/golf cart lanes, traffic lights at San Marino and Rio Grande, adding turn lanes at those intersections with Morse Blvd.) Unfortunately a good fix was not developed for the golf carts traveling south that must cross north and southbound Morse Blvd lanes just north of Morse/CR 466 gates.

So for now, if folks are concerned and want changes, they should communicate their thoughts to the Sumter County Commissioners.
