Victories in Pedestrian Safety and Sidewalks

My son is a freshman at UD and the tragic accidents that have occurred along Main Street just this school year are very concerning. There needs to be more safety measures along this road.
Alyse supported: Ensuring Pedestrian Safety for University of Delaware Students in the Wake of Tragedy
As an individual who routinely works with community partners to collaborate and provide solutions I believe this is an opportunity for the City and the University to come together to address the safety and security of residents and students. My heart goes out to the family of the student and those injured. As the parent of a student, I pray for their safety every day and pray that measures wi be taken to make this area safer.

I was struck by a car also while riding my bicycle through the same intersection as Daniel Bacsik of W. to E. DE Ave. and S. College Ave. in 2014 as a U. Delaware student and suffered injuries of a nasal fracture, broken teeth, and facial lacerations as well as a concussion. I am concerned the city of Newark that had records of my accident in the city police report, my city court appearance, etc. and perhaps to some extent the university may have been negligent in not considering the risks posed by the intersection to bicyclists evidenced by my accident and ensuring it was safe given nearly a decade to do so. Therefore the city should put more effort into preventing such tragedies by improving safety especially at locations where accidents have occurred in the past. I can describe more if you would like to contact me stefan.bartell@gmail.com

I’m a freshman at UD and with three years left here and already hearing of two situations this school year alone, I want UD to be safer for all of us. This being a heavily pedestrian area surrounded by many roads, there should be more protection.

I have seen several accidents on this road and have only lived in the neighborhood for 7 months - it is too close to downtown to not implement more safety measures
Lauren supported: Install Speed Control Measures on Charles Street to Reduce Accidents & Enhance Safety
I'm a cyclist thats been hit by a car here in Victorville. My bike is my only mode of transportation and I feel so unsafe here having to go to work everyday or trips to the grocery store. It always feels like a gamble here. We are in absolute dire need of more pedestrian protections.

As a frequent driver turning right on Veterans Blvd., this is where pedestrian traffic and vehicular traffic meet very dangerously. Please add safety measures for before we suffer our first fatality.
James supported: Construct Sidewalks to Broomall Giant, LA Fitness, and Royal Farms
Sidewalks on both sides from WCP to Veterans Blvd now! I walked from WCP from New Armored Road onto Veterans Blvd and feared for my life. I have also been in a car and the vehicle came close to hitting someone because its impossible to see a person walking when you turn right onto that road. The lack of sidewalks is dangerous for pedestrians and drivers! The development of sidewalks at that shipping center shouldn't have been an afterthought. It's clear that Marple Township turns a blind eye to safety issues and zoning variances.

I’ve lived on this dangerous corner for 45 years and witnessed many accidents involving pedestrians, including small children and infants in strollers caught under cars. The traffic police do the best they can to control drivers but it doesn’t seem to help. It’s time to put some real protections in place that would prevent further accidents and pedestrian fatalities. A firm four way stop for vehicular traffic perhaps. Also cameras and enforcement of cameras.
Jocelyne supported: Improve Traffic Law Enforcement at East 63rd Street and York Avenue Entrance to FDR
