Are you allowed to turn left in a roundabout? Do you have to stop for people inside the roundabout? Maybe people should be told these things by someone with authority rather than me as I'm panicked cause someone almost hit me and I'm pissed off.

How is a crosswalk so close to the police station so dangerous? I've had plenty of instances of almost getting hit here while crossing. This is the intersection where I've seen people with strollers get stuck in the island because of oblivious drivers ignoring the crosswalk signals. Until there are consequences for bullying people with your 2 ton motorized vehicle, I don't think anything will change.

This intersection is one of the most dangerous I've seen in Gainesville for pedestrians. Drivers don't think they should have to stop for pedestrians. They often speed through here trying to make a green light that will inevitably be red at University by the time they get there. I've been almost hit at least a dozen times here.

24 needs to be paved; many rough spots and potholes. Coming from Archer, you can definitely tell when you cross into Alachua Co.
-
Terrible potholes everywhere; entire Hwy needs to paved.
-
Theres no shoulder/ bike lane in this area
Se 15th st is INCREDIBLY dangerous for bikes -
235A and Peggy Road are definitely not pedestrian friendly. You have forced children to walk along Peggy rd because the bus won’t make an extra stop. They’re walking at night on a 50mph road that truckers always miss their turn and go down. It’s so unsafe.
-
Cars speed and are aggressive here along University Ave. it’s makes me feel very unsafe to leave my neighborhood while driving and very unsafe to walk along the sidewalk. There have been many wrecks along here

6th and 13 th streets are unsafe for cyclists trying to commute any time of day.

This road as with most roads in the county is dangerously narrow full of potholes and drop offs. I call on an average of three times a month to complain. All that is ever done is very poor patch job that does not last. This road has not been resurfaced in over 40 years.

This road needs major improvements including widening and bike lanes. Cyclists use this road regularly creating safety issues both drivers and cyclists

CR337. Needs total re-do from SR26 to county line
-
Sw 170 st from sr26 to sr27/45 needs to be re-done completely
-
Repair roadway. Pot holes are ridiculous.
-
Improve visibility on all sight lines of intersection.

Improve visibility when making left turns from SR 26.

I always struggle when I need to cross this street and wait for the light on that side. The sidewalk is very narrow and uneven, with no shade, and there’s an abandoned building in the background. Why can’t this land be utilized more effectively to make the city a safer and more pleasant place?

It’s a very dangerous and unpleasant intersection for pedestrians: narrow sidewalks, heavy traffic, no shade, and cars everywhere—there’s a U-Haul on one side and a car service on the other. The nearest light to cross Main Street is quite far away. There should be more intersections connecting Duck Pond and Pleasant Street.
-
Add a lighted crosswalk to and from the park here. So many people cross that street anyways, might as well make it safer for everyone. While you're at it take down the creepy cop tower that does nothing for the community.
-
Pavement is very uneven. Unsafe to travel at the posted speed limit. needs to be resurfaced.
-
There needs to a be a stop or yield sign on the bike path. If you are driving up or down the road in a vehicle you cannot see parts of this pedestrian path until you are right on it.
-
If you cross 8th Ave here to get to the sidewalk , you have to go into a big wide ditch that is typically not mowed frequently and the weeds are above my knees.

3 NW 24 street has been the site of numerous car accidents. It is sited facing University Avenue barely seen until close by eastbound traffic on University Avenue due to a hill and by westbound traffic on University Avenue due to a bend. There should be reduced speed in the area, as a part of which is a raised pedestrian crosswalk for homes in the area. Many people here walk or bike to to campus, and can’t safely cross one side or another without walking an inconvenient distance for a crosswalk, resulting in a lot of dangerous jaywalking.
