The crosswalk needs to have flashing lights on the road like in SLO. Cars do not slow down or stop when people cross.

LOVR need to be four lanes all the way to SLO. There is increased traffic not.

This light causes dangerous back ups along LOVR for cars headed to Los Osos during the evening rush hour causing many accidents. The light needs to let more westbound cars through at one time but instead it's programmed to allow way too much time for east bound cars to turn onto foothill. There's not as much traffic headed east or toward foothill at that time of night. Sometimes it takes 15-25 min to get from Laguna Middle school to the foothill intersection at evening rush hour. Crazy.

Once cars cross Southbay Boulevard going toward SLO,they start speeding well above the posted speed limit and when they see it?s now gone to 35. They?re probably going about 50 when they pass the first of the three Senior mobile home parks. It is very difficult to get out into the center lane with the speed the cars are going. Perhaps a flashing slow down sign or a sign indicating their current speed would help.

The intersection of Rodman Dr. and Pecho Rd. is a very dangerous place. The only indication there is a crosswalk is at the intersection. Heading west towards MDO the road bends and a driver cannot see the intersection until they right on top of it. This has become a busy road since MDO has become the 9th most popular park. Drivers speed very often. Children going to school, elderly crossing to use the coastal trail and equestrians all must cross here. There are no sidewalks as well.

illuminated crosswalk sign with push button to signal a pedestrian is walking across the road would be great here (crosswalk at Alexander and LOVR). Vehicles tend to speed through the crosswalk when walking, or don't notice a pedestrian is waiting to cross.

This turning lane is problematic as traffic coming in both directions use the same lane, and if you need to turn left and someone coming the opposite way needs to turn right, it takes both cars indicating in time to see and get around eachother.

At present there is no safe way to walk from Cuesta by the sea (pine avenue) to Palisades to access the library, community center, playground or skate park. This is especially an issue for families with small children or strollers. A protected footpath or sidewalk would make all these services accessible on foot or bycycle.

These crosswalks need a pedestrian island in the middle because the road is much too wide for seniors/children/ folks with disabilities to get across safely. Even if a couple cars stop sometimes cars will switch lanes to try and get through the intersection and around them without noticing the pedestrians and I've almost seen people get hit.

The intersection of Pine and LOVR is really problematic. If someone is trying to turn left on Alexander while someone is trying to turn left on to pine the two vehicles would meet in the middle turn lane on LOVR. I've seen and been a part of numerous near misses. Usually cars are traveling a pretty high rate of speed to get out of the way for folks to continue on LOVR.

LOVR up to this point (and South Bay) should be the only roads that allow regular vehicular traffic in Los Osos-Baywood. All other roads should be for foot traffic, bikes, and no-emission vehicles with 20-mph top speed. A tramway, trolley or shuttle should run the length of LOVR and into MDO. Implement by 2040.

How about a round about at the Foothill intersection

Widen road on Pecho from Monarch Elem past Rodman so people and children can ride bikes safely. Add large speed bumps before Rodman so people slow down as it is a blind crossing at that bend for people to cross with their kids and animals.

I have lived in Los Osos for 40 years. LOVR has been dangerous and only grown more so in the last 10 years. We have needed a separate walking/biking path off the road along Pecho Rd to Palisades so everyone can feel safe walking or riding to the library or market areas. Ottawa Canada has had separate paths since the early 1970?s! We are much too car oriented and change is long overdue.

The crossing at Rodman and Pecho Valley Road is used by pedestrians, equestrians and bicyclists and needs a light for a crossing. The speed should be reduced also because it goes into an almost blind corner. 40 is way to fast.

Crosswalk at this location is poorly marked. It should have lights similar to those highlighting crosswalks in the downtown area on LOVR.

LOVR needs to be 4 lanes from SLO City limits to Pecho Rd. Also left turn preference for cars traveling into SLO and turning left on Foothill needs to be eliminated. This only backs up traffic bad during afternoon rush hour in the area east of Foothill Blvd.

As people come around the curve of the freeway, they often slow and hit their brakes. Traffic often heavy between the North bound on ramp by Home Depot and Vineyard Rd.

North Bound off ramp 101 at 46 is often blocked with traffic backed up onto the freeway. This causes a slow down on the freeway which could lead to an accident.

This corridor needs its own protected bike lane, completly separated and protected from drivers.

The unprotected Left turn is extremely difficult as a result of the high speeds from both directions and especially because of the blind spot the grade changes. And you can forget about a left turn from here when its coastal foggy in the area.

A bike route separate from 101 between Highway 58 interchange and the Cuesta Bike trail would be a great connector between the Cuesta Ridge trails and Hwy 58 & El Camino Real.

I live at 1672 lovr. Cars are going over 45 mph at this part of the road. Without sidewalks and additional crosswalks, we feel unsafe walking our dogs or letting our 9 year old ride his bike to school or to friends homes

At this time southbound traffic in the right hand on foothill can "merge" onto westbound LOVR without stopping at the light. This is very dangerous! I see near misses frequently. The merge lane needs to go!

The crossing of 101 at Tassajara Creek Road is a concern for drivers who are not accustomed to it. Simply closing the crossing would be an extremely inconvenient solution, as the next better access to the south is Monterey St, 8 miles away. Either an overpass at Tassajara Creek Road or access to the exit for 58 would be reasonable solutions.
