You need to be advocating for pedestrian bridges for roads this large. [b]We will never eliminate pedestrian deaths and injuries on roads that large with speeds that fast[/b]. Were not getting rid of cars. But there are safer ways to cross large intersections if everyone make these requests a priority.

I’d also love it if we’d adopt the European (maybe just British?) method of cars in all directions stop at the same time and pedestrians cross all together in all directions. That is really the only safe way for right and left turns to happen. [/quote]

You're right.[b] The answer is to make the roads smaller, with slower speeds. [/b]That's how to make them safe for pedestrians.

Pedestrian bridges

1. cost a lot of money
2. take up a lot of room
3. and aren't used by pedestrians, because they're inconvenient and make people feel unsafe

So they don't make sense. Spend the money on effective solutions.

Not going to happen with congestion in this area. [/quote]

You're ok with dead and injured pedestrians, then? Because that's the trade-off.[/quote]
