Northwest Bexar County residents living in the Davis Ranch community often use Beverly Hills Drive as a shortcut to FM 1560, but that’s no longer allowed.
Helotes city leaders passed an ordinance banning thru traffic on Beverly Hills Drive, and those who violate it could face a $250 fine.
People living on Beverly Hills Drive say their quiet street is a thing of the past, with people using it as a shortcut. Griggs and others’ concerns prompted Helotes city officials to act, passing an ordinance prohibiting thru traffic on Beverly Hills Drive.“The road usually handles 1,000 cars a day. Just in the past few months, that has gone from 1,000 to 1,800 a day. That extra 800 a day — it’s tearing up our roads,” Whitehead said.District 2 Bexar County Commissioner Justin Rodriguez said the county couldn’t legally fight the ordinance.
