Crosswalk needs to be restriped ▶ La Kaydiiyey

All of Upper State Street needs repainting.

Corner of state street, mechanic street, & Lawrence Street is and accident waiting to happen. All crosswalks need to be restriped, and Mechanic Street needs to be marked ONE WAY.

The intersection of Humphrey and State was done today,
Are the crosswalks and intersection lines North of Humphrey to State scheduled to be striped this week too?

No Change.
Traffic and Parking, are these scheduled?

They have not been re-striped yet.
The Upper State Street Association is waiting to here from Traffic and Parking as to when lines will be re-striped on State Street.

Restriping these crosswalks is very important as many studies have proven the effectiveness of crosswalks. But even more importantly, for the crosswalks to be most effective and safe, automobile travel speeds along this section of State Street need to be reduced in a significant way. This is a pedestrian-rich environment and retailers depend on pedestrians feeling comfortable, safe, and happy.

See this quote from Richard Untermann: "For pedestrians to move safely and comfortably, cars must travel at slow enough speeds. Pedestrians simply can't compete with fast moving traffic, which to me means traffic in excess of 20 mph." From http://www.plannersweb.com/articles/unt002.html

Talked to Mike Piscitelli last week. These can not be painted until the spring as its too cold to paint.

Crispy White New Cross-Walks!
Delicious.
