So far, I've not heard that any consideration is being made for the
thousands of bicyclists and pedestrians who will have to CROSS Dayton
St. every day. For example, will there be a stop light at Charter
St., as there is on Johnson? Will crosswalks be marked and signed?
Will there be a posted and enforced 25 mph speed limit? There's an
opportunity here for the city and university to demonstrate concern
for ALL the people who use the area, not just those who drive through
it in cars. Perhaps even the reconstructed Johnson St. could include
such features to make crossing it safer and easier, plus some means
of slowing the drivers who come off Campus Drive and cross Randall at
50 mph.
