Description

This is a very wide intersection with long pedestrian crossing distances. Cars traveling on Columbus and Willys speed around blind corners. It's not unusual for cars to completely ignore the red light.

Sneckdowns appeared during the last snowstorm, showing the entire width of the intersection is not used and does not impede traffic. This intersection could be improved by adding curb extensions that reduce pedestrian crossing distances and provide a traffic calming effect. Crosswalks need to be re-striped and would be great candidate for public art to raise visibility.
