I live on the south end of Fisher Road, but Hollywood has a similar problem.            The north end of Fisher has a speed of 40mph with no homes.  The middle has a speed of 25mph and the pavement is 50 feet wide with few sidewalks and many pedestrians.             South of Silverton Road on Fisher has a speed of 25mph and the pavement is as low as 22 feet wide that is mostly without shoulders or sidewalks, but has pets, children, seasoned citizens, bicyclists, and wheelchair enabled pedestrian
