There is a well worn path through the grass. A paved connection to the trail is needed.

I would love to see the visibility improved (for both pedestrian and motorist) at this intersection.

A lot of pedestrians cross the road in this area either walking to school, or getting to/from the Publix shopping area to the apartments on Tower Road. It seems like a pedestrians are not willing to walk to the intersection to the south with Archer Road to cross or to the north at Tower and 51st Blvd. A crash recently (10/24/24) occurred involving a pedestrian crossing Tower Road, and unfortunately she was seriously injured. Providing some additional high visibility crossings in this area would be a boon to both the school children and the residents in the area. Some additional context: this area is also signed for 45 mph and has a merge lane which has led to some drivers driving more aggressively to pass slow moving vehicles before the merge ends.
