[quote=Anonymous]The "draft" map for Drew is a little baffling. I know it's for discussion purposes, but what is and is not walkable to Drew isn't really a matter for debate; anything within the triangle formed by Glebe, Four Mile Run, and Walter Reed is walkable. Anything beyond it is not. Those are very busy roads with few traffic signals. The legend of the draft map makes clear that elementary students are not allowed to cross Four Mile Run or Walter Reed Dr. I sure wouldn't let mine do so. Yet there is no such designation for South Glebe Road at the intersection of 395! Is that a joke? There is absolutely no way a child can safely go from Arna Valley/Long Branch Creek (which is within the Oakridge walk zone) to Drew on foot. You literally have to cross two highway exit ramps and then Glebe road itself, which is five lanes wide at that point. In rush hour traffic. I guess APS REALLY wants to move Arna Valley and Long Branch Creek from Oakridge to Drew. [/quote]
