Motorcycle death earlier this year. Speed limits were raised by DOT... To "calm" drivers. It's a speedway. Our driveways come straight out into this road. Bikes are not safe here. Nor our children.
-
Illegal parking in the bike lanes is not ticketed/towed - it is very dangerous for cyclists. The bumpers have reduced the number of vehicles in the bike lanes this year (thank you), but they do make it more difficult to swerve around vehicles that park in the bike lanes anyway. Amazon trucks, for example, are parked in these lanes on a nearly daily basis.
-
A safe path for bicyclist from I-75 to Old Archer Road Trail is drastically needed. This is a significant bottleneck in the overall east/west bicycle connectivity.
-
The bike lanes are inadequate for safe use of a bicycle. Vehicle speeds far exceed the speed limit.
-
A sidewalk would be good here and easy to construct. Kids would use it to walk to the bus stop rather than waiting in the grass.
-
Cars race from stop light to merge point or pass on right at high speed adjacent to the bike lane.
-
Hurricane debris in bike lane for over 1 month. Cyclists forced into the car lane.
-
Bike lane interrupted at the entrance to Circle K is wrong.
-
The short section of two lanes heading east encourages cars to speed and pass on the right closest to the bike lane.

This is the closest bus stop to my home in Fort Clark Forest. I would gladly walk or ride my bike to catch a bus here but then it would take me 1-2 hours of bus riding to get to work at UF. Lots of environment-minded people on west side of town would take a bus if it were feasible. This is not.

The 2-lane bridge with reduction from 4 lanes just prior makes this intersection so dangerous for cars let alone pedestrians and bicyclists. So many accidents. A young man died a few years ago. Something has to change here. It is a nightmare during rush hour.

Crazy overburdened - please stop approving massive apartment complexes and new homes with no added infrastructure! How about some park and rides?

A bus going out to High Springs would help connect the community more

The lack of pedestrian/cyclist crossings down this stretch of 43rd leads to many people walking or cycling across the road when it is unsafe. 2 pedestrian-triggered crosswalks like the one present on 16th would help alleviate this problem without being too costly
-
Phoenix neighborhood NEEDS more sidewalks, updated concrete and streets (horrible potholes constantly popping up), better lighting at night, and to update the park off of 33rd place for the kids!

I cross this intersection about twice daily, and it's unusual *not* to see multiple cars/day run a stale yellow or red light on 8th Ave.
