Description

At this busy 4-way intersection, there are traffic lights, but no pedestrian crossing signs. Motorists are allowed guarded turns, but it is VERY unclear when it's safe to cross, which is especially scary during rush hours. Cars can always turn into the street that you're trying to cross.

Also, the angle of at least one of the traffic lights renders it invisible to pedestrians. While standing on the corner by the Franco-American School, I cannot see the traffic light diagonally (by the Pharmacy). This intersection should be made more safe for pedestrians. It favors only cars.

I AM ADDING THIS IN CAPS BECAUSE THE ISSUE HAS APPARENTLY BEEN CLOSED.

PLEASE CONSIDER PAINTING IN SOME CROSSWALKS IN THE MEANTIME. THEY ARE ALL BUT FADED AWAY, AND IT WOULD BE NICE FOR SOME SORT OF SAFETY MARKER TO BE VISIBLE.
