Hello I work on Orange St. and drive by Union Station twice a day. The buses and shuttles that park out in front of the railroad station block the crosswalk view for drivers and pedestrians. We have to guess if someone is coming to cross. And the pedestrian has to poke their heads out past the buses and shuttles. This is very scary. I have seen on many ocassions people having to jump out of the way due to you cannot see the pedestrians coming with the buses and shuttlles blocking our view. I am not trying to be a shake your finger type of person. Just thought you might want to know. safe driver. Thanks

I believe there is a signal light at the crosswalk in front of Union St. So, pedestrians should not be walking out into traffic. Traffic should have already been stopped by the light. And, this is a horrible spot to put a curb extension with the amount traffic that comes through those particular intersections. Idealistically that might make sense. but practically it would create a nightmare for everybody there.
In short, people need to uses their crosswalk signals and drivers need to obey the lights.
