Maybe ppl will get tired of having to move enough that they will opt for a temporary shelter in a building or 1 of those single-bed homes like they are building in Portland. Saw on the news last night. tiny house with room for sgl bed and the "village" has community bathrooms and is managed onsite.
Triage housing services based on priority and need, overall people need to be willing to seek mental health support, abide by curfew and no drugs and no alcohol and rules like no pets, then, based on need first families with kids, then elderly then other adults
I prefer metering to increasing the number of lanes. More than one lane makes roundabouts much more dangerous to navigate, especially with drivers who are not locals and do not understand how roundabouts work. 2 lanes = many more accidents plus 2 lanes need to be a much larger diameter for safety.
If it weren’t so maddening, our City counselors would make for a cast in a Monty Python show. They befuddle themselves with ludicrous ideas and foist them onto the taxpayers. Bend is becoming a laughing stock to outsiders and a source of continual angst for the residents.
If people used the roundabout correctly and actually filled in the gaps and went when there was an opening it would flow just fine. People wait for a bus sized gap before they go.
A roundabout's primary purpose in traffic management is to improve safety and traffic flow, resulting in less congestion and fewer accidents compared to traditional stoplight intersections. Key words: Flow, less congestion and Stoplights. Now they want to add Stoplights!!!
City waste at its Best!
What's the point of having a light at a roundabout? The point of a roundabout is to get rid of the lights. Widen it and start growing for the people coming here. The way bend builds, everything is obsolete by the time it's done.
I drive through this around about several times everyday and it is never an issue very rarely. Is it an issue? The reason they put roundabouts in for the first place was to get rid of stop lights and stop signs
Yes! And the minute they come back stop them in there tracks and not let them set up again. This will eliminate future sweeps.
ReplyNO WILD CAMPING on public streets that’s what campgrounds are for!! NOBODY is above the law,
ReplyThey shouldn't be there in the first place. Camps should only be allowed outside of city limits. Sweep away!
