If nothing else we need to make a huge effort to slow traffic down to about 45 MPH at China Hat Rd. If there is no funding for a pedestrian overpass add several warning lights indicating congestion.

Do you think a persons life is important? How many have to die or be injured before you give the crossing higher importance?

Yes it is extremely important, lives should be very important. Roundabouts are not a necessity, pedestrians safety over a major highway should be first before another stupid roundabout!

HIGH Traffic makes it a manditory pedestrian safety issue.

The speed limit should be 55 and there should be NO STOPLIGHTS!!! What's the point of a bypass if you have to stop. Again, a little common sense!

I assume it would cost millions of $ and people will still cross in areas they shouldn't. Why are there sidewalks along the Parkway? Remove the sidewalks and fence it like they do along major highways or accept the fact that people will still cross it and die.

Don't cross the Parkway where there is no crosswalk. It is for vehicles. Crossing the Parkway will result in a thinning of the herd. For all of you atheists out there it is called "survival of the fittest".

Since nobody sits outside in the cold of winter, why not remove all the outdoor eating areas at least in the winter??

Parking and city revenue out weigh the small gain in revenue the business say they receive.

Nobody is sitting outside in the winter months and Street dining should be limited May - October months. Also what is not needed is 4 season dining in these structures (walls. Heaters, etc) when restaurants have room inside. If eateries don't have room inside, shouldn't be taking public space

A few circles around the area, I always find a spot. It’s not any different than any other city. I like seeing people enjoying the outdoors. That’s why we live here.

NO, with all the info out there about scams, it is inexcusable for anyone savvy to be taken in by such. However, seniors are particularly vulnerable, and family should assist them in avoiding scams. I had to take away my mother's phone when she entered assisted living and later memory care.
