Description
Crosswalk not marked other than barely noticeable sign. Regularly used by pedestrians to visit new restaurant and mercer students walking to/from class to avoid college street. Drivers don't slow down or notice the pedestrian crossing sign, instead they regularly exceed the speed limit and make crossing very scary during high traffic and at night.

Traffic Engineering has looked at this location on several occasions and concluded this is not an ideal spot for mid-block crossing. Hardeman Avenue has an average daily traffic count of 10,000 vehicles per day. In our opinion, it would not be safe to install an unsignalized crosswalk, because it would give pedestrians a false sense of security while crossing at this location. We have installed crossing signs to alert motorist of the potential crossing of pedestrians in this area. In addition, our budget cannot support the installation of a signalized crossing at this time and this location does not meet the required warrants for a traffic signal.
Thank you,
