would like a dedicated DG path for bikes, horses, runners, walkers from 101 to 46 physically separated from roadway [much like a bridle trail]

This is a tricky area for bikes traveling west since the bike lane runs between Vineyard going toward shopping and the freeway onramp.

agreed; when cars in the dirt lot are parked close to the intersection, they often make it hard to see oncoming eastbound traffic

Add bike lane along the entire corridor

agree; can accommodate much more traffic and assures driver slowdown without the light; works nicely at highway 46 and also in Santa Ynez/Buelton off 154.

This intersection is odd, it feels like random cars are parked on a dirt lot (adjacent) and people are walking to Trader Joes and/or hiking. It's sometimes stressful how to navigate safely.

If we brought back busses rather than just the shuttle to TES, how much less traffic might there be?

A lot of traffic through the neighborhood both before and after school. Vehicles often speeding through the neighborhood in effort to get ahead of traffic on Vineyard, disregarding that the speed limit is 25 in residential areas and there are children walking to or from school.

Shoulder and pavement conditions along Vineyard Drive are not maintained for safe bike riding. Always littered with debris, weeds, and wide road cracks.

More road signs to remind drivers and bike riders to share the road and provide 3-foot space.

This would be much better than a light. A traffic light would not look pleasing for home there, and would not solve the slow down/accelarating problem. We need a way to really remind people that this is not a highway. A light would not solve that. A circle with crosswalks is family friendly too.

Great point!! What is traffic calming? I would not like lights outside of our house but speed and safety is priority. Is traffic calming like stop signs and bumps? Thank you

The amount of cars not stopping and accelerating at high speed is so high. No crosswalk here is also very dangerous as families cross to the trail without one.

We live in this area and the noise of those motorcycles on the weekends accelerating is not pleasing. I dont know how I feel about lights, any other solution to reduce noise, help with school traffic and allow crossing over to the other side of bethel in a safe way? Any ideas? The circle?

Dangerous cross because no formal crosswalk and many families, including us use it daily.

Street light needed at Hopkins and at 1730 Vineyard, There should be a third center lane for left hand turns between the freeway and Bethel Rd.

A roundabout for the 101 on and off ramps + trader Joe's street would make sense

MAJOR need to slow Vineyard Dr traffic down here, as a resident on the South side of Santa Rita Rd, I have almost been rear ended multiple times while turning left onto Santa Rita due to cars behind me not wanting to slow down. They have even passed in the bike lane at a high rate of speed. I suggest a four way stop be added at Vineyard Dr and Santa Rita

An enhanced crosswalk is very much needed here. There are a lot of students trying to access the north side of Vineyard Drive from the south side especially from Meadowbrook Mobile Home Park and other residential developments. It is almost impossible during the peak school hours a.m. and p.m. to get across Vineyard, vehicle volume and speeds are prohibitive. I also second one of the other comments that said a signal is needed at this location trying to make a left hand turn is almost impossible.

What exactly is being planned for the entire corridor? So far the information is quite vague.

To ensure traffic slowdown and continue traffic movement, this is an ideal location for a traffic circle

The intersection of Vineyard and Bethel should have traffic lights, so a stop would not be required for most traffic on Vineyard (which causes extra noise and fuel consumption). This should ease the 'school commute', and reduce the number of cars detouring through the housing development. In general, a relatively small amount of traffic approaches on Bethel, so the 'green' on Vineyard could stay on for extended periods.

I agree with the previous posts. A left turn from Rossi onto Vineyard is dangerous, especially when school traffic is heavy.

Pedestrians need a sidewalk on south side of vineyard where TJ shopping center and residential properties are. Making it safer for pedestrians would reduce some of the vehicle traffic.
Traffic controls for both rossi and bennett way are beyond necessary. I don't understand why new neighborhood builds don't trigger these discussions at time of development.Liked 2 times -
Stop letting those crazies disrupt traffic on the overpass
