When driving southbound it's very easy to get stuck at every single light with a red which can take upwards of five-plus minutes to go through three intersections. Please make a change that allows green lights. I can understand waiting for a red light but not going green red wait then green to another red light and wait even longer and then another green light to just go one more block to yet another red light.

General Policy--The TSP ought to specify that all traffic signals detect all vehicles. Wherever loop detectors can't be set sensitive enough to detect bicycles without also detecting motor vehicles in adjacent lanes, then the detectors should be replaced with video detection. Wherever hidden (paved over) loop detectors work, but cyclists can't identify the narrow location of detection, that "sweet spot" should be marked with a bike detection symbol.

SIDEWALKS needed.

DEADLY PEDESTRIAN VS CAR INTERPHASES - The fact is we opened a MAGNIFICENT CITY PARK at Orenco Woods and put 5,000 residents North of the Light Rail and there are daily near misses with near deadly incidents daily along Alder and Birch Streets. Car travel to the park is now 10 times what we had prior to the Park and Pedestiran flow is up 1,000 percent and we have 1) NARROW STREETS 2) NO Sidewalks and No relief areas. School buses, Park maintenance vehicles, and residents and visitors are all meshing with Park Visitors on foot and bike and we are one day away from a disaster. We have submitted trail plans and alternate plans and no actions have been taken. There is a simple solution and yet we do not see any movement. Please be aware of this terrible problem. The Park has sidewalks all the way from the East and South but not one sidewalk from the West! Help!!!

No sidewalk
-
A bus that connects to the MAX station would be nice and might help decrease the amount of cars parked here during work days
-
Severe backups turning left onto John Olson during rush hour. A protected left turn here would help greatly
-
Remove the bike markings from the Butler roundabout sidewalks, so that it will be clear to all that cyclists can legally ride the safe, and recommended way through the roundabout, on the roadway with other traffic, rather than by crossing other traffic like ducks in a shooting gallery.
-
I live on busy Birchwood Rd which serves as a main through-street from Jackson to Grant streets. I would like to see stop sidewalks along Birchwood for all the foot traffic and to provide a safe place for walkers to be rather than in the middle of the road which is a very common.
-
For bicyclists going westbound on Cornell and turning south on Brookwood, the only option is to use the crosswalk paralleling Brookwood. Can you add a bike waiting area in between the straight and right-turn lane on Brookwood so that bikes can join the traffic in crossing?
-
Please consider adding a traffic light at Grant and Glencoe as traffic builds up during rush hour.
-
I see walkers along this high-congested Glencoe Road all day long. A believe a top priority is to install a sidewalk so the neighborhoods can have a safe place to walk into downtown. This builds community to have pedestrian and bicycle access to the core of downtown.

Please do not connect Willowgrove to Main. There are already speeding issues on Willowgrove and increased traffic would make this worse.

WE NEED BIKE LANES IN DOWNTOWN
-
There needs to be a sidewalk from Birkshire Ct. down to where the park starts. This city promotes walking yet you put your life on the line trying to walk this stretch because there are no sidewalks.
-
Cars frequently running red lights here. A red light camera would be good here,
-
Please do not these two roads here. The roads south of this point are not wide enough to accommodate the traffic push. This includes the Pullman woods area. There is not enough room to handle that traffic. The folks in Orenco Gardens need to continue to funnel to Century Pkwy and Elam Young.
-
Too many cars driving too fast. Need speeding enforcement
-
The road formerly known as 231st does have the ability to accommodate additional traffic from residents south of Baseline. Is this not why Corn Pass was widened? Brookwood may also work, but punching a road through there into the neighborhood south of Noble Woods would put a lot of traffic into a neighborhood with narrow streets, cars parked on streets, and lots of kids.
-
We need bus service on Minter Bridge Road.
-
We need a tunnel straight down through the Earth, so we can get some sun during the lame wet/cloudy fall/winter/spring months.
-
The limited bus service on Brookwood makes it difficult for even library employees to get to work. On the weekends there is no bus to the library, which means many free events are still inaccessible to low-income families.
-
As someone who lives in this area, I would greatly appreciate not seeing an increase in traffic at the intersection of E Main St and NE Century Blvd. The excessive noise from certain types of vehicles negatively affects the quality of living in this area. I'd rather see other major thoroughfares -- such as Cornelius Pass or Brookwood -- be expanded to accommodate more traffic flow.
-
we only have one car and I do not mind taking the bus or the max I just wish there will come more often on Cornell so you do not need to wait that long for the next one specially the weekend
-
There should be a crossing in farmcrest & shute to help people in the neighborhood cross when there is a lot of traffic it can take 3 minutes to cross the road
