Description
Intersection is dangerous! The Post Office is a highly sought-after service, but Shoreline Dr lacks any noticeable signs alerting drivers looking for this destination. Drivers often miss S Shore turn near the entrance to the Post Office, and then they try to make crazy maneuvers to get back. Intersection doesn't have bright coloring, flashing lights, or proper signals. Pedestrians and bikers crossing in any direction on S Shore x Shoreline Dr, and going to or coming from the beach are easily missed due to lack of safety features. The whole of Shoreline Dr needs safety improvements, and this is one of those areas.
