This issue is currently being looked into by a Public Works Inspector. Updates will come shortly.

The City of Dunwoody has received this issue. It is registered as service request # 2362. Currently, we are working on this issue. Please check back for status updates.

This request is not reasonable nor considerate of existing crosswalks and traffic flow. Walk to the corner where there are lights and pedestrian controls - there are light controlled crossings either side of North Peachtree intersection at Mt Vernon - Jett Ferry and Saffron Drive. Traffic does not need three pedestrian lights within 500 feet of each other.

Paul,
I'm not requesting an entire new traffic light. I'm requesting a flashing pedestrian signal that users can push only when needing to cross, or at the very least a simple cross walk. It is "unreasonable" to just dismiss this request by telling pedestrians to walk an extra 950 feet to get to an area that's only 12 feet away.

Spritz05 - the nearest pedestrian crossing is 200ft to the left of North Peachtree on Mt Vernon - - well worth the walk - See the image.This the third pedestrian crossing available to you on Mt Vernon within that block of the Sprouts shopping center. Another 50 ft and you are at the lights on Mt Vernon and Jett Ferry . Take a right from North Peachtree and walk 400 feet and you are at the lights for Dunwoody Club Drive and Mt Vernon. There are more dangerous locations in the Dunwoody catchment area that require these valuable resources.

Thank you for the suggestions and comments. The city's transportation plan recommends a center turn lane and bike lanes on this segment of Mount Vernon Road. The pedestrian crossings can be evaluated as part of that future roadway project.

Supposedly it was already approved that there should be a new cross-walk put in at Mt.Vernon and North Peachtree

I'm excited if there will be a crosswalk at Mt Vernon and North Peachtree. This makes sense since it connects a major area of Dunwoody (Kingsley) directly to the retail amenities across the street.

In addition to the planned improvements on Mount Vernon Road, the city has plans for pedestrian crossings in this area. The existing crosswalk at the entrance to All Saints is expected to be relocated to the intersection at Jett Ferry and a new crossing is planned at North Peachtree Road.
