Map was not working but from victory to Cloverdale needs a side walk. People drive very fast and we want to go to the library or to the city park or school in pepper ridge we have to drive because there is no walking access on victory.

Sidewalks are really needed on Five Mile between Franklin and the overpass. There is a school bus stop at Estate and Five Mile (6:50 am) and kids walk that road in the dark. A sidewalk would make it much safer. There are lots of bike riders on Five Mile also.

Any existing road that is resurfaced or improved should always include adding a bike lane and sidewalk. Lake Hazel is a prime example. You took it down to dirt and didn't even widen to include bike lanes or sidewalks. There is plenty of room to add these items.

Continuous sidewalks from Overland to Victory.
Why does Cloverdale from Overland all the way to Fairview and beyond (except overpass bridge) have continuous sidewalks and not this section between Overland and Victory??? Long overdue.

Request a bike route/sidewalk on the south side of Desert from Cole Rd. to Maple Grove. There is no access to the north side of Desert from the south side at Latigo Dr. and that is a primary bus stop location for children in the S. Latigo neighborhood and there is not only not a sidewalk to walk on the south side, there is not a crosswalk for children to access the bus stop or sidewalk on the other side.

Just horrible that one land owner has been able to stop this road from being taken through to connect these sides with a road. need to make it a Bike path if anything.

Need sidewalk on both sides of street all along 5 Mile Rd, including the bridge over the Interstate.

The traffic blocks that stop drivers from crossing traffic to enter business developments is causing more traffic problems and causing even more safety issues for bikers and pedestrians because instead of pulling into the center lane and waiting for an opening to turn, drivers have to go to the traffic light to turn or make a U-turn. People aren't expecting U-turns.

The roads are horrible, and can't handle the increased traffic. Definitely need sidewalks on both sides.

Dangerous area for pedestrians and bikers. Uncontrolled development has already led to huge traffic concerns. The Overland & Clear Creek intersection is a primary concern. People are parking on both sides of Clear Creek and it is no wide enough. The neighborhood needs sidewalks and lighting.

We live on the corner lot- there is no sidewalk on one side of our home. It just stops about halfway up the hill. Not sure why its incomplete. The weeds are very hard to maintain and it seems to be a place that easily collects garbage and debris. Aside from safety reasons, it is just an eyesore.

Please complete sidewalks from Overland Rd. along S. Cloverdale Road to Victory Rd. It would be great and very beneficial to be able to walk down this entire stretch of road without having to walk on S. Cloverdale Rd. itself with cars going past at 40-50 mph. Particularly along S. Cloverdale Rd. between Armga Dr. and W. Peppermint Dr. and over the Ridenbaugh Canal bridge.
Secondly, while the school crosswalk at W. Muir Ridge Dr. is nice, the sidewalks do not connect to this crosswalk for other neighborhoods along S. Cloverdale Rd., particularly the neighborhood at W. Peppermint Dr. (Crawford Place).
So, due to the lack of connecting sidewalks to either the Overland Rd. crosswalk or the W. Muir Ridge Dr. crosswalk, school children, their families, and pedestrians are forced to cross busy S. Cloverdale Rd. without a crosswalk. *This is nearly Impossible during the peak morning and afternoon hours.*
Unfortunately, the designated 'school zone' ends slightly after the W. Muir Ridge Dr. crosswalk and drivers end up speeding back up to 40+ mph continuing to Overland Rd. making it a really dangerous spot to try and cross for children, families, and pedestrians crossing S. Cloverdale Road on W. Peppermint Dr.
Connecting the sidewalks from Overland Rd. to Victory Rd. in their entirety would drastically help this problem, especially with the rapid population growth SW Boise is seeing.Lastly, the crosswalk along Overland Rd. and S. Cloverdale road is something to be looked at as I have almost been hit there more times than I can count by vehicles turning onto S. Cloverdale Rd. from Overland Rd. in either direction, *during the busy peak afternoon hours.*
(When crossing the other three sides of the crosswalk, it doesn't seem to be much of an issue.)Liked 3 times -
Walking path or sidewalk along S five mile for students going to and from Christine Donnell Elementary. This Area is very dangerous, congested in the morning and afternoon and doesn’t allow any pedestrian traffic to safely access the school.

Have a crosswalk to allow people who live in the subdivisions north of Lake Hazel a safe way to cross to the south side. Currently there is no sidewalk that we can take to reach either traffic signal at Maple Grove or at 5 Mile. Or connect the sidewalks to those of us on the North side of Lake Hazel can safely go to either traffic signal
