  • 225 Prospect Street New Haven, Connecticut - Prospect Hill
    A biker going downhill on the side-walk, barreled by me, a construction work and group of 5-10 students at top speed. Didn't even touch the brakes. Estimated speed ~35 MPH. On a narrow sidewalk. At lunch hour. With blind entry walkways every 10 yards. Construction workers said he does it every day. I'm a biker and I've never seen anything like it. This is clearly a thrill seaker/psycopath. He's going to kill someone - any chance a cop can be stationed to catch this guy?
  • Cold Spring St And Orange St New Haven, CT - East Rock
    The Pedestrian button for the intersection at Cold Spring and Orange St does NOT work. This is the one at the SW corner (i.e. diagonally across from Wilbur Cross).
  • Canner St And Orange St New Haven, CT 06511 - East Rock
    This intersection needs a traffic light. Both Orange St. and Canner St. are major thoroughfares for this area. There's considerable pedestrian traffic too, including people disembarking from the Yale Shuttle Orange Line stop. I have seen so many near misses - this is a fatality waiting to happen.
    3 months ago I saw a big car collision here (one car pulled in front of one barreling down Orange St) as I was riding along Orange on my bike. Today I watched as a couple + dog tried to cross the intersection while cars converged and cut in from every direction. To add to the danger, visibility was reduced on both sides thanks to a minivan parked on a no-parking spot on the SW corner of the intersection and a UPS truck on the other side. Even w/o them it would have been difficult to cross given the high speed and sheer volume of cars coming on Orange St.
