We are aware of the situation here and have this location on our list of projects that we are evaluating for funding in our 2014 budget. We will also be evaluating the entire Dresden Dr corridor for traffic and pedestrians as part of the Comprehensive Transportation Plan which will be developed during the first half of 2014. Finally, we have applied for a grant from the state for upgrading all of the traffic signals, including upgrades for pedestrians along Dresden Dr. We expect to hear about this grant before the end of the year.

We will provide updates when we have more information on the timing of any improvements.

Thanks

Thanks Mr Meehan. Just wanna add that the new city Govt. is awesome and I am excited to be part of the new city.

City of Brookhaven City Manager's Office assigned this issue to Brookhaven Department of Public Works

We have been awarded the grant for signal improvements, including pedestrian upgrades, for the Dresden corridor. We will begin hiring a consultant this summer to begin the planning and design of the project. We are also addressing this corridor as part of our Comprehensive Transportation Plan.

in the short term, we have ordered some additional pedestrian signage, including the in street "state law stop for pedestrian" signs and these should be installed in the next few weeks.

Thank you, Mr. Meehan. This is great news.

Thank you for announcing this, awesome to hear!

SECOND REQUEST: SeeClickFix service request audit initiated. Issue ID 835377 still in ACKNOWLEDGED status. Submitted request to Public Works to provide status update.

Those signs do not work. People are still flying up and down Dresden. Cops with radar guns will slow people down. I've seen cars pass cars that are trying to turn left or right. They go around the stopped car and blaze through a crosswalk. There could very easily be someone in that crosswalk. I've seen people have road rage and lay on their horn because someone exercised their right to cross the street and they feel they didn't need to stop (this was in front of Haven and Verde a few weeks ago). It's ridiculous. Until we have proper law enforcement, stupid signs that people ignore and / or mow down will not get people to slow down and adhere to pedestrians crossing the street.
