The stretch of road between the stop sign at Lakeview/Wedgewood/Kingswood and Lakeview/Windermere Rd is extremely dangerous, with drivers after the stop sign accelerating well above the speed limit down the hill, faster up the hill, and faster still back down the hill. I am my family members have personally almost been hit multiple times, and cars have even come up onto our curb when they have lost control after having gone too fast.
Additionally cars coming the other way on the long stretch of Lakeview before Windermere Rd. are having the same speed and control issues.
The only suggestions I would have are an additional stop sign at the crest of the hill, or some speed humps or bumps along Lakeview Drive.
It is a serious issue throughout this neighborhood, and only a matter of time before someone or something is hit and hurt or damaged.

This intersection (and really the whole parking lot, but especially this entrances) is confusing and not well designed.
Leaving the parking lot you are stuck with two stop signs right after another, which is a problem because it then leads to the Southgate stop sign which has its own flow and pedestrians so it often backs up.
Entering the lot from Southgate you either have to go right or left for a lot which then leads you to cross two cross walks in quick succession without good visibility. This forces a bit of aggressive driving to assert right of way against other cars also trying to leave.
This whole parking lot would be best served with a massive redesign.

Intersection is confusing for motorists. Cars that are proceeding into the intersection from S Mayfair have their own light but it isn't clear once you get into the main intersection that you can keep going. So cars from S Mayfair pull up to John Daly and then stop right before they enter the intersection if they are not used to the light. This then blocks cars from Poncetta Dr from entering the intersection when it is their turn.
This could use better singage or a change in traffic patterns for people turning from S Mayfair.

As a result of the way residents block the sidewalks when they park their cars here, pedestrians must walk in the street. Add to this the poor street lighting, and walking here is especially dangerous at night. Don't lecture on the need to wear bright clothes - ensure that the streets are safe and walkable!

San Mateo County's Trails Master Plan and Midpen's Purisima-to-the-Sea Trails Feasibility Study call for trail crossings of Verde Road and Highway 1 to connect the Bay Area Ridge Trail and California Coastal Trail. Pedestrian improvements could include signage, beacons and crosswalks.

Current conditions at the Red Barn location include excessive speeding and passing. Midpen's La Honda Feasibility Study to evaluate potential expanded public access are evaluating potential improvements that could include a median to prevent passing and beacons to slow traffic.

Northbound traffic stopped on the highway to make an illegal left turn into hotels and restaurants is a constant traffic hazard. Motor traffic rarely stops or slows down but rather drives along the highway to pass the stopped motorists making the illegal left. Not sure if pedestrians or bicyclists heading south on that very same shoulder where the trails don’t connect and there’s no safe passage for them have been injured due to this constant traffic violations. Police could write tickets here all day long.

There is no safe pedestrian area from the Naomi Partridge Trail into town to Main Street. When can we expect a safe route for foot and bike traffic along this corridor? The east side of our community from downtown Half Moon Bay to Montara has no safe pedestrian passage except for the new trail at Mirada Rd to Coronado Rd. Unacceptable.

Reina Del Mar Ave. is heavily used during school hours and unfortunately, there is only one way in and one way out to Vallemar School and few options for alternative places to drop off students. Turning from Reichling Ave onto Reina Del Mar is difficult for drivers during heavy traffic times. The crosswalk to the school is heavily used and can be dangerous. A crossing guard was hit in the crosswalk.

Multi million dollar county trail ends without connection to the city trail (Naomi Partridge Trail) that’s a stone’s through away. This trail to nowhere forces pedestrians onto the highway shoulder and oncoming traffic. How could such a massive and expensive project be approved without it connecting to the adjacent trail?
