Statement by Barbara Turner

It seems to me that in matters like this, form should follow function. Right now, many, many people are crossing Aberdeen at Kent, because it's so far to the other crosswalks. I see them crossing by day and by night, and it's a dangerous crossing, because the cars are going so fast on that arterial(I suppose a subsidiary benefit would be that cars would have to slow down). Creating an official crosswalk there (though not, perhaps a stoplight) would make this a safer area for pedestrians and drives alike.
