On October 7th, Trion Police Chief David Gilleland issued a press release saying the speed bumps on Deforest Avenue and Allgood Street were being removed by the Town of Trion.  Gilleland says that the Town of Trion was notified by the Georgia Department of Transportation that the speed bumps were in violation of DOT guidelines.  Those speed bumps aren’t the only ones that will be removed.  The local paper reported that the police chief told the town council that speed bumps near Mount Vernon Mills will also be removed because they violate DOT height and width requirements.  Gilleland is reminding motorists that the intersection at Deforest and Allgood is now a four-way stop.
