The Louis and Weatherly intersection would benefit greatly by the addition of a traffic light to make pedestrian and bicycle crossings easier

As i next mention the following tangential consideration, i hope to not distract any attention away from the more important fact you guys do great work on behalf of all of us.
One secondary factor was mentioned above, which would perhaps lead to re-opening this study issue.... namely the eventual contribution from Haysland Road's upcoming role as an artery.
Another likewise secondary-type issue could be identified as being.... the late afternoon backups on the southbound Parkway. Which routinely occur weekdays at the first red light south of all its overpasses. And which may incentivize folks to seek-out detours via various routes, which all start-out with turning eastbound onto Weatherly.
Once again, i had mentioned that secondary consideration about the Parkway back-ups only in passing, as being something which could continue to be monitored.... and regret that i unfortunately sounded as-if-quarrelsome, when the far more important message i wish to convey is that....
We citizens of Huntsville are lucky indeed, to have city public servants, among us as great neighbors, who have proven they are always motivated to do the right thing in a professional way.
Their sensible expertise has time-and-again been an especially valuable blessing during this ongoing Covid epidemic scenario, which has temporarily caused unprecedented ramifications in so many dimensions of civic-policy decisions.
