Williamson Source conducted a traffic survey a few months ago, in which respondents were asked questions about commuting, problematic intersections, if they use school transportation and how they perceive traffic in Williamson County.
With a total of over 1,023 responses, 134 respondents were from Brentwood, making 10% of the survey results voiced from the Brentwood area. Currently, the Census Bureau estimates that Brentwood’s current population at 40,000 with a population growth of 10% from 2010 to 2014.
As Williamson Source compiled these results, one of the comments to the survey stated:
“The roads simply cannot handle the traffic during rush hours. Planning for growth was inadequate and citizens are paying the price for past incompetence.”
Here are some other facts from the survey regarding Brentwood:
- Brentwood is one of the only areas in our survey with more commuters than residents.
- I-65 is the major North-South route through the county with major exits going East/West.
- Over half of our respondents have students that attend school but the number was spilt on how many drive their children to school and how many ride the bus.
- 64% of our respondents have a daily commute of 20 minutes one way
- Over 73 % of our readers believe that traffic is the number one long term issue in Williamson County.
