RPB Council votes no on Madrid Street connection

ROYAL PALM BEACH - After three hours of listening to residents either support or oppose a proposed road connection between Madrid Street and State Road 7 the village council voted 4 to 1 to not build the connection.

The meeting was balanced between those who supported the connection and those who opposed it. Those who supported it were focused on convenience and access to emergency operations while those who opposed it were worried about the increase in traffic and children's safety.
