IS OUR NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOC AWARE OF THIS?
A new Wal-Mart Store is being built.
We in Lakeside division will have many children who will ?“want to go to Wal-Mart.?” A lot of these kids will be walking, riding bicycles etc to get there.
I have a concern about the inevitable increased pedestrian and vehicle traffic in this area.
Currently the Rigsby US 87 roadway is not designed for any pedestrian traffic. Vehicles travel at excessive speeds. Pedestrians have no 'protection' from this speeding traffic. There are no cross walks, cross walk signals, pedestrian lanes or any safety barriers to protect anyone who walks along or ACROSS this roadway.
Wal-Mart will probably be open in the next two months, but no information has been spread to our area of any plans to improve or modify US 87.
And, there are no signs, or any work crews out there indicating anything is going to be done.
DOES ANYONE KNOW...
Is there a plan to modify US 87 from 410 to Lake Front Rd to make it more pedestrian safe?
Are modifications going to be made to US 87 so that we don?’t have multiple pedestrian accidents in this area?
What about additional stoplights for entering and exiting Wal-Mart?
