I suggested an all red phase for the lights at this intersection. Thus letting peds and bikes have the intersection to make there moves, then go back through the car signal phases. But I got no answer from the city. I guess they did not like that idea. I realize it would hold up traffic, but this is a big corner for pedestrian traffic, between the schools, the UW and the athletic facilities located around it, then add in a regional bike/walk trail, and you gotta start to think about all red signal phases.
Just my thought. Ann M.

Something of interest for bikers and users of the Southwest Path. There will impacts. Let's ensure they are good impacts. Since it is an arterial bike path, there should be more than just neighborhood input. ********************************** Neighborhood Meeting Regent Street/Monroe Street Intersection & Southwest Path Thursday, November 1, 2007 at 7:00 p.m. West High School - Cafeteria, 30 Ash Street City staff will be present to discuss the reconstruction of the Regent Street/Monroe Street intersection as well as the southwest path in 2008.
