Every day, I navigate the bustling roads of NW 185th in Tanasbourne on my way to school, heading north in the morning and returning south in the afternoon. This route, which is a vital artery for countless residents like me, is already teetering on the brink of congestion. The news of an In-N-Out Burger being built on the intersection of NW 185th and NE Evergreen is concerning. This location, busy as it is, sees thousands, if not tens of thousands, of commuters daily, and the addition of a popular fast-food chain will only exacerbate the traffic woes.

In-N-Out Burger is renowned for drawing large crowds, and the anticipated increase in traffic could significantly hinder the daily commute for drivers in this already congested zone. The intersection in front of the construction site is a lifeline for numerous travelers and will no doubt become a bottleneck, leading to extended traffic delays, potentially increasing the risk of accidents, and prolonging travel times.

There's a strong need to re-evaluate this location choice. By considering an alternative site that's better suited to handle the influx of vehicles and customers, we can preserve the efficiency of this essential transit route and protect the quality of life for the residents and commuters who rely on it.

The potential traffic increase could affect businesses, emergency response times, and the environment due to increased vehicular emissions. This is not merely an inconvenience—it's an urgent community concern that requires immediate attention.

I implore local planners, the In-N-Out corporate team, and city officials to reconsider. We propose a relocation to a less congested area where the infrastructure can better accommodate such an establishment, ensuring the well-being of those who travel these roads daily.

Sign this petition to urge decision-makers to act before it’s too late. Together, we can find a solution that benefits all without sacrificing the ease and safety of our daily commute.
