We are asking that the City of Eugene install protected crosswalks and flashing lights on roads in front of schools where needed in Eugene. Too many children have to cross extremely busy roads around their schools without protected crosswalks or flashing lights. Roads around schools should be safe for children to cross. Appropriate signage should be installed on these roads.
Uzasadnienie
We call upon the City to take preventive action rather than wait until a student is injured or killed on a dangerous road in front of a school.There have been many “near-misses” where drivers do not see students trying to cross. Some schools already have protected crosswalks with flashing lights, but many schools do not. Some of these schools are located on very busy roads. This is a vital safety issue and we ask that the City of Eugene take action right away to protect our students crossing the streets.

My child is affected by the lack of safe crossing options every day we bike to school.

Our children’s safety should be of the highest priority! We should have to wait until someone is injured before taking notice. All schools should have safe routes for students.

Kids safety
Eugene
Pedestrian safety is a top concern. People need to feel safe to walk or run or ride bikes. Getting cars to be responsible and slow down is key

I assisted a medical emergency of a kid involved in a bike-car accident near Roosevelt. He had biked in the protected crosswalk towards the high school.
Young driver was at fault, partly because of the blinding morning sun and rushing. I see near misses there all the time.
