Thank you for reporting this. We'll evaluate the location and provide you with our findings / next steps. If you have any questions, please contact us at 678-297-6260.

Major segment of park frontage on Cogburn Road is located on a horizontal curve with limited visibility for northbound traffic, creating an unsafe environment for pedestrians crossing. Simply marking a crosswalk without including other pedestrian crossing treatments such as lighting, pedestrian hybrid beacons, curb extensions, etc., does not necessarily improve pedestrian safety. In some situations, the marked crosswalk alone may increase the potential for pedestrian-vehicle crashes. It is recommended to use crosswalks at Highway 9 at Cogburn Road signalized intersection which would be significantly safer compared to a mid-block crosswalk. We’ll provide more updates when data collection and analysis is complete.

We have collected pedestrian and vehicle counts. We are currently developing different conceptual plans / designs to determine what safety treatment will fit on the site.

We have prepared a conceptual design for a mid-block crosswalk on Cogburn Road. We have contacted the HOA to further discuss the plan (have not received any response yet). Please contact us at 678-297-6260 or email amoradkhani@alpharetta.ga.us to schedule a meeting and review the proposed mid-block crosswalk design. Thank you.

The City of Alpharetta has addressed this request. Thank you for reaching out.
