Comments for “Safe Streets for All San Diegans Virtual Open House - Jornada de puertas abiertas virtual "Calles seguras para todos los habitantes de San Diego" COMMENTING CLOSED (COMMENTARIO CERRADO)”
-
This is a difficult intersection to cross as cars typically part in the crosswalk on Madison.
-
I've nearly been hit here multiple times as cars from 40th turning right on Adams rarely look for people walking.
-
It is difficult crossing Ohio street along Polk. Ohio is very wide, cars race down Ohio and it is not a four way stop. There is a sign that states "Cross Traffic Does Not Stop", so the city understands that there is a problem and attempted to solve it with a sign.
-
Drivers speed north/south along Dale and the visibility of crossing pedestrians is severely limited. There aren't any crossing protections at this intersection. A miniature roundabout, 4-way stop, and/or curb extensions and marked crosswalks would improve safety to this high pedestrian traffic intersection.
-
This is a busy intersection for all modes and greater protections for pedestrians crossing are needed.
-
Drivers making a right turn from the west leg of Grape to go south on Fern speed through this intersection creating dangerous conflicts with crossing pedestrians. Recently the loading zone on the southwest leg of Grape street was painted with striping and it has actually worsened the problem of drivers using the space as a slip lane to go right without stopping or waiting for cars in front of them on the west leg waiting their turn to to go straight or left. Install bulbous and hardscape to reinforce that the loading zone is not a turn lane.
-
Dedicated and proper right turn lane needed onto Napa St fro Linda Vista Rd..
-
Busy crosswalk is partially blocked by physical island barrier.
-
Crosswalks needed at this intersection.
-
Yield signs needed on Eureka St at this uncontrolled intersection to be consistent with intersection just to the east.
-
Raised-barriers on south-going Gilman seem to appear out of nowhere on a downhill stretch of roadway.
Depending on the time of day, the start of those barriers may be shaded (i.e. difficult to see) at a place where bicyclists may be traveling quickly (i.e. downhill). Bollards present a physical barrier to bicyclists and it's difficult to imagine what, if any, value they provide on this very short section of roadway (i.e. risk of bicycle accident appears much higher than any perceived value). As another has suggested, my feeling is removing bollards (at least on the downhill stretch) would seem safer than having bollards there.
Going North/Uphill, I don't feel there's substantial harm in having the bollards, but I don't see any substantive value either. Over time, I might expect the separated areas to accumulate debris. If City is not providing regular maintenance, that accumulated debris will become a hazard. -
Dangerous merge. Bad sight lines and better traffic engineering needed here.
-
Speed limit seems to be a little high in this area, especially with the new development recently and more planned.
-
Cars speed by this blind intersection. Even more dangerous with new multi story building blocking sight lines. A 4 way stop or traffic calming may be needed.
-
More lit cross walks, roundabouts and ways to slow this down.
Also motorcycles race here at night and it wakes people up. -
This intersection needs a roundabout or other traffic calming.
The road here is much too wide so drivers feel comfortable speeding down the hill. There are always lots of pedestrians crossing the street to get from the beach to the bus stop and street parking on the east side of the road. These pedestrians would be in much less danger if there was a roundabout with cross walks.
-
There is no cross-walk here, one must cross street between parked cars.
-
E Mountain View Dr is extremely wide and it is difficult to cross; both side of Adams
-
I want to bike to the beach, but it's terrifying to cross the freeway to get to the bike path.
-
Difficult to get to the beach by bike because there is no safe route to cross the freeway.
-
This intersection has cars parking in the crosswalk when the elementary school lets out in the afternoon; reqmore more than red paint
-
This section of Nobel lacks consistent bike lanes.
-
This section of Genesee is currently chaos due to the pure water project. I hope as that project finishes up, this road will be rebuilt better than it was before the project, with better ways to cross rose canyon and access Univerity city highschool by foot or bike. The bike lanes before the purewater project construction were not adequate given the speed and volume of traffic.
-
A way to cross the train tracks is needed here to connect Claremont to the Rose Creek bike path. Commuters from Northern Claremont need to take a dangerous and lengthy diversion to Balboa to access the bike path, and UCSD to the north.
-
Cycle lane completely vanishes here, forcing bikes into freeway speed traffic. I know there are plans to build a 2 way cycle path here, but a safe connection between campus and the Rose Creek bike path is needed now! Bike commuters are risking their lives every day to get through this stretch. An easy, cheap, and quick solution would be to just remove a lane of traffic, and turn it into a 2 way protected bike path.
