General Road and Highway Discussion

[ijmorlan]

Waitwaitwait. Weber is getting a crossing at the Laurel Trail?!?!?!?!?

(Probably should reserve this excitement for the "Trails" thread, but this sounds too good to be true!)

Edit : oh, wait. You said "island." Sigh

I had a discussion with my other half here this weekend past and we were trying to figure out how to make the crossing safer. We just walked our bikes down to Lincoln (past the crash scene ) and crossed there. Adding a crosswalk light probably isn't going to happen given the already high number of lights in the area.

When is the Pepler light moving?

Even an island is a huge improvement. Due to the traffic lights in the area, I suspect that each direction individually has significant gaps in the traffic reasonably often, but it can take a long time to have a gap in both directions at the same time. Is it confirmed the Peppler light is moving? That would certainly be another huge improvement.
