Description

The location of the pedestrian traffic light call button is very close to the traffic. Traffic seems to funnel down this newly constructed road bends at speed, especially at office rush hours. The intersection of new traffic lights, roads, lanes and turns makes this area especially confusing. Several times a day car tires can be heard impacting the curb resulting in punctures or lost hub caps (see photo). Car fender bumpers occur fairly frequently as well. As this area has commonly a wait area for school children to wait for the crossing light, this can be an unsafe condition as the waiting and button area is close to traffic. Many times, cars can be seen driving on the new bike path.
