Elm Street/Maple Street & also Mansfield Ave./Maple Street Essex JCT, Vermont.
I would like a rapid flash beacon to be considered for crosswalks on Maple Street across from Elm Street and also across from Mansfield Ave. Everyday I see school kids waiting at those locations trying to cross and multiple cars pass by without stopping. Many times speeding. I have even witnessed this happen at the rapid flash beacon across from Maple Street Park but the beacon seems to make it a bit safer, especially during the winter months when it gets dark earlier in the day. There is a crossing Guard at the Mansfield Ave/Maple Street location in the morning and afternoon, but only for a small window of time. Kids going in to school early or staying after for sports are without a crossing guard. Thank you
