Live close to this intersection and see kids trying to get to and from school all the time. So dangerous!

Improvements needed desperately! Bluemound road is often used by I 35 travelers trying to bypass the construction back-up mess going on with that stretch of road. This part of North Ft. Worth has seen tremendous growth in housing and retail and the construction continues. Hopefully some improvements to Blue Mound can be made soon although another road construction project in this area could be even more frustrating!

Please consider doing something about this area... No walking area for kids that walk to this school

I've lived in Saginaw for 20 years now and have now seen two kids have their lives taken away trying to cross this dangerous road. It's already unsafe to drive on let alone walk on. It's time for a change

I have lived in Blue Mound 41 years.. The road has gotten so busy that it is dangerous.. It needs to have a slower speed limit and more cross walks. I know you can't have sidewalks on private land, but I do believe when they start building new house there should be some kind of deal in the contract that they will build sidewalks.

The Saginaw HIgh School needs a sidewalk and crosswalk too. Especially with all the neighborhoods and housing nearby, so many kids are walking to and from their home. It's too dangerous, and Blue Mound is an extremely busy road!

None of the Saginaw High Schools have a sidewalk for the students to walk. All 3 schools have students walking along side of the road (in tall grass)where cars are doing a min of 40mph. How is this possible??? Why are there no sidewalks, especially when they have to walk from school when dark due after school activities.? Needs changes asap .

My daughter walks to Saginaw High School everyday for school. There are no sidewalks, and the traffic light at Basswood is a joke for pedestrians.

I have been saying this for a while. I hate seeing kids having to walk those dangerous roads to get to school.

I just moved here from Orlando and want to live in a safe community. Orlando built many overhead bridge crossings for students to get to school to eliminate the danger of being hit by busy traffic. That would be one way to eliminate dangers are there many others, but it needs to be done quickly.

As too often happens a life has been lost because of unsafe conditions for pedestrians. With the exponential growth that has been experienced in the area it is imperative that planning for improvement of these roadways and sidewalks be placed on a fast track; before another precious life is lost.

I live in this area and drive down 156 often. The traffic on this Rd occurs quite often with it being a two lane Rd (one lane only for each direction) Something needs to be done for the students who walk to and from Saginaw HS.
