Description

The road between Union Station and the Union station parking structure is poorly lit. Sanitation workers on this street in the early morning hours are working in almost total darkness wearing uniforms that do not include reflection tape so they are essentially invisible unless an auto coming the opposite direction back-lights them. In this case they simply appear as shadows. Sometimes the workers stay on the sidewalk but some of them actually walk on both sides of the road picking up trash. I appreciate their work ethic but this is not a safe environment.
