Description
Traffic heading south on Washington Bl and turning right (west) on 6th st/Thomas Gagnon. Cars routinely ignore pedestrians and just drive through. Other drivers make this into a two lane turn, refusing to wait and pull out and around a waiting car. It's the most scary intersection on Washington Blvd

When can we expect to see the flexible posts installed on this part of Washington Blvd to help this? We were originally told "after Labor Day" and other parts of the city with newer bike lanes have these installed at the time of painting.
PS: There's been so much car traffic on the Washington Blvd bike lanes that the stripes need repainting
