[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] It would be nice if DC re-striped the crosswalks near the DCPS that my kids attend. The crosswalks are so faded that drivers can't see them. [/quote] Drivers here don't respect crosswalks, painted or not.[/quote] We need many more raised crosswalks. Crosswalk on a speed bump basically. [/quote] Raised crosswalks are great. They should be at every intersection near a school and at many other locations. For folks in AU Park, there are several raised crosswalks on Van Ness St. near Turtle Park. For years, the DC government has refused to consider traffic calming on streets that have a higher classification than "local." (Van Ness is in a higher "collector" category.). Raised crosswalks seem to be one measure that DDOT will install. Vision Zero should not mean "Action Zero." DC needs to install many more raised crosswalks and other devices to improve pedestrian safety, and to do it soon.[/quote]
