Jessica, a resident on Craig Robertson, said the speed cushions installed ahead of a planned road closure have "been absolutely amazing," and that drivers who previously "flew up and down" the street are now slowing down.
The cushions are placed directly in front of houses along the block, and Jessica said they have made walking dogs, biking and general pedestrian activity noticeably safer on a street that lacks sidewalks. "It's made it so much so much safer," she said, adding that neighbors have also "spoke so highly of them."
The interviewer noted the cushions had been in place "only a few days" and that they are expected to remain for the duration of the project. Jessica said residents hope the devices could become permanent because of the safety benefit. The transcript does not identify which agency or contractor installed the cushions or whether a local traffic authority has approved making them permanent.
There was no mention in the transcript of a formal vote, permit, or specific timeline beyond the project's duration; the remarks were an on-site resident report rather than a city-issued announcement.
The interview concluded with expressions of gratitude from the resident and interviewer; no further administrative actions, responsible agency names, or public-comment records appear in the transcript.
