Resident urges crosswalk at State Street and Lagoon after near-miss incidents
Summary
At the May 5 work session, resident Bryan Murray told the council drivers at State Street and Lagoon are 'reckless' and urged the installation of a crosswalk to improve pedestrian safety.
At the Roosevelt City work session on May 5, public commenter Bryan Murray raised safety concerns about the intersection of State Street and Lagoon, saying drivers are endangering pedestrians and urging the city to install a crosswalk.
"Drivers are reckless and almost hit pedestrians," Murray said, calling on council members to prioritize a crosswalk and other safety measures. The comment was recorded during the public comment portion of the meeting and no formal response or action was recorded in the session minutes.
The comment joins other agenda items related to transportation and public safety slated for future discussion; council members did not take a vote on the crosswalk request during the work session. The matter may be referred to staff for study or placed on a future agenda for formal consideration.
