Burlington, VT PLUS

For the 50th+ time in the last few years... I was almost run over by a car blasting through this intersection at 45 mph+, completely oblivious to pedestrians already in the middle of the crosswalk/railroad crossing. Long-time residents and businesses on Lake Street have submitted multiple police reports and traffic calming requests to the City over the last decade as traffic and reckless driving on Lake Street have significantly increased each year. This report is no doubt a duplicate of a half-dozen others about this same intersection that have been ignored, archived, and deliberately forgotten about. Is it really going to take a pedestrian, child, bicyclist, skateboarder, and/or pet to be run over and killed before the City will do anything?

At the intersection of East Avenue and University drive, this is a crosswalk used frequently by employees of UVM Medical Center. The crosswalk is poorly marked. Further on a nearly daily basis, I observe drivers failing to travel safely through the intersection. Cars barely slow down and occasionally completely miss the stop sign heading west (toward Main St).

I would like to request a lit crosswalk sign at this intersection and improved pavement markings and stop sign visibility.

I didn’t see a link for comments on the current pop-up “sidewalk” along Stanbury Road, so I’m commenting here. I love the idea of a sidewalk on the east side of the street there, but I’m concerned that some of the wider versions don’t leave enough room for car traffic when the west side of the street is full of parked cars. In particular, there needs to be sufficient room for a car on Stanbury to wait for traffic on Staniford AND allow for traffic from Staniford onto Stanbury.

The dtBHS traffic/pedestrian flow is dangerous both at drop off and pickup With this being the high school's home until at least 2025 are there any improvements in the works?

pine place at st paul needs a here2corner sign for exit.

feeling frustrated and concerned with how fast people drive down our street because it's long and straight. We also don't have sidewalks, so it feels dangerous taking Fletcher for walks down the street. Do you know if the city has considered putting speed bumps/tables on Cottage Grove like they did on Tracey Drive?

at the intersection of East Ave and University Rd there is a three way stop that is often overlooked and cars drive straight thru. I commute this way from the UVMMC parking area to the hospital and have been nearly hit many times... even when I'm on the cross walk!
Please make these STOP signs more visible. (The one down the road has blinking lights connected)

I'd also like to request a side walk on University Rd.
Thanks for your time!

Requesting flashing Ped Lights near Booth St - Crosswalk closeby - needs light for safety

Customer requesting No parking here to corner sign moved back more. Dangerous at the North Ave Intersection

Grove Street is an extremely dangerous road as people travel at a high rate of speed last year a car came up the hill and took out the corner of a duplex at Bayberry Commons. Thankfully the residence were in a different room, or they probably would’ve been killed I called over a year ago and asked that speed bumps be installed on Grove Street to slow down the traffic I have yet to receive a response and nothing has been done Greenup day. I had to keep yelling at people to slow down as we were trying to clean up the sides of the road. I would like a response on this issue as soon as possible. Thank you Susan Winston.

Drivers continually park on the sidewalk in front of the gas station. This is both a safety and accessibility issue for sidealk users. At minimum, please consider a sign in the greenbelt that says "no parking on sidewalk" with arrows. Thanks!
