[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s unsafe. Now that kids were hospitalized, hopefully the board will take it more seriously.  In addition to widening sidewalks, they need a traffic engineer to figure out how to make it safe for cars to turn onto side streets or outright prohibit certain turns that result in constant problems both for the turning vehicles and pedestrians. To the poster(s) who are so quick to say it’s no different from other areas and it’s just a question if getting people to obey laws and follow rules, are similar concerns being raised about the safety in front of other schools? I’m genuinely curious. I’ve never had kids attending Kenmore, but I frequently drive through there at release time and found it uniquely problematic.[/quote]

They don't need a traffic engineer, that's always their excuse. They can enforce the speed limits. They can also widen the sidewalks and create a grass strip between the sidewalk and the street to provide a buffer. Common sense.[/quote]
