For pedestrian and cyclist safety, please, please provide a crosswalk.

REALLY need a sidewalk to connect from towpath to 56th. It’s only 1/2 block but kids have to walk and ride their bikes on the road to get to the Rivi. Can we get this done BEFORE someone gets hit?

Please, at the very least, immediately make the posts reflective!

I agree this area needs further study. Heading south on Illinois, the orientation is the traffic signals can be confusing. You can see four separate lights at once, which may be confusing for a distracted driver. Also curious about installation of flashing bright white lights on yellow Caution signs that pedestrians can press to illuminate, further reminded vehicular traffic to slow down and check for pedestrians.

Very unsafe intersection - with cars, bike riders, people walking/running.

This is a terribly confusing intersection, especially with pedestrians in the mix. I have had a couple close calls with pedestrians while turning left onto Illinois from Westfield boulevard. I would greatly appreciate this intersection being re-evaluated and made safer.

This is very important for the safety of our community. Cars drive well over the speed limit on Illinois Street.

This needs to be redesigned for safety

At minimum, please paint the crosswalks and put flashing lights up to slow traffics down on both streets that connect there. It is a wide/long crosswalk so very hard to navigate on foot or bike of cars are flying from all directions! Thank you for considering a change/update!

It is very dangerous and is not safe from any direction.

This is a critical neighborhood intersection which desperately needs sidewalk access to the Rivi. Long overdue.

left hand turn light from Westfield onto Illinois from both directions, better crosswalks, clear lane markings for cars

We live on Kenwood. There needs to be more consideration for walkers and bikers at this busy choke point.

We've been almost hit here many times. A friend's teenage daughter was hit and had her pelvis broken. Crossing Illinois in the towpath is incredibly dangerous, even with the "walk" sign lit. visibility is poor for drivers, and turning traffic has too much to be aware of to notice pedestrians/bikers.

Horrible intersection for cars and bikers/walkers. Let’s make it safe!

It’s a dangerous junction - I think we should do something to improve safety for pedestrians
