Why are the walking gates locked? I understand you want to deter drivers from cutting through, but you are making things very inconvenient for pedestrians as well.

I have family buried in the cemetery and have to walk all the way around to the main entrance to get in - so frustrating. And, then to go home, I have to walk back out the main entrance and up the big Highland hill w/2 small, tired children.

Aside from "visiting," my girlfriend and I like to walk our children in the cemetery because it is the only place where we can walk side-by-side with strollers without being in the middle of the road. It is such a pretty, peaceful place, where we can walk and chat without much interruption.

And in the same vein - what was the point of adding the walking gate at the top of Partridge Street only to have it locked as well??
