An LSV would have died long before it got to 395. While you enjoy the wide open spaces, I spent 2 hours driving from Grand Boulevard to the Commons.

Traffic light needed
With summer in high gear and the increased traffic in and out of the area, I think it's time someone gave some serious thought to putting a traffic light at the 3 way stop in Seagrove Beach. Sometimes the traffic is lined up for half a mile.

I don't think lack of a traffic light is the problem.
I liked the traffic circle proposal but it doesn't look like there is enough room for one that would be properly large. It would need to be big.

Traffic circles really do help to keep things moving. But the pedestrian crossing would have to rearranged too. Who proposed a traffic circle?
There was talk about a circle a few years ago and prior. I saw a drawing also. I'm sure it went out the window with the construction of the mansion on the south side and V Seagrove.
Yes, there really isn't enough room for the size roundabout that could accomodate an eighteen wheeler. And still the problems of the vehicular roundabout interfacing with the bicycle traffic would prove unmanagable. A concept I have thought about would be to make a large "roundabout" using Holley Street and and a piece of Grove Avenue as one way streets. A bit far-fetched, but hey, it's a thought. The more reasonable idea would be to detour the bike path down Grove Street to take those numb-skulls out of the busiest intersection of our community.
The reality is, that the intersection will remain the way it is, and it works fairly good. Use that time you're stuck in the "Wheelhouse Parade", as I use to call it, to catch up on your texting.

St. Joe owns tons of property that they can't sell. Why don't they build a bypass from 30A to 395 to make life easier for their property owners in Watersound?
The traffic is not a Seagrove problem. It's also a Seaside problem. The people in Watercolor can bypass 395/30A by going down Western Lake Drive then W. Lake Forest Drive. Why can't St. Joe do the same for the owners in Watersound? It would greatly relieve the traffic at 30A/395.

I agree, the vehicle and pedestrian traffic is a huge safety issue. I feel like the traffic lights in Rosemary keep the pedestrians from being quite so careless. Would lights at the seaside crosswalks ever be an option?
I have to admit that I have notice a lot less carelessness at the lights in Rosemary as compared to Seagrove. Somerset Bridge Road at the Tom Thumb is like a duck shoot with everybody walking in the road. They really need sidewalks there.
