The intersection of Pasado Road and Camino Pescadero in Isla Vista, CA is a frequent crossing for both pedestrians and cyclists in the community - Students are constantly headed to and from school, to shop in Isla Vista or to make their way to the beach from campus. Crossing traffic on Camino Pescadero can be both stressful and dangerous as cars speed between the two stop signs at Pardall and Trigo, and installing a stop sign and crosswalk at the Pasado intersection would be an important investment for several reasons:

1. Pedestrian and Cyclist Safety: Installing a crosswalk at Pasado and Camino Pescadero will provide a designated spot for cyclists and pedestrians to cross, eliminating the current need to cut across motor traffic.

2. Traffic Calming: A crosswalk and stop sign at Pasado and Camino Pescadero will slow traffic between Pardall and Trigo, creating a safer pedestrian environment all the way through Madrid, Seville, and Sueno.

3. Accessibility: A marked crosswalk ensures that everyone, including individuals with disabilities, is able to cross safely and confidently.

Sign this petition to urge the Isla Vista Community Services District and Isla Vista Recreation and Park district to install a pedestrian crossing at the intersection of Pasado Road and Camino Pescadero. Together, we can make our streets safer for the community and foster a walkable and cycle-friendly environment.

I have spent this week walking through that intersection and watching cars speed past people just trying to get home. Knowing how many of you share this fear keeps me pushing the local district council for a concrete plan.

Seeing this kind of movement confirms that so many of you have felt the same terror while trying to cross that intersection. My heart feels a little lighter knowing we are finally bringing real attention to a corner that has been dangerous for far too long.

As someone who frequently crosses Camino Pescadero I would appreciate a crosswalk in this general area. The parking of cars on each side of the road makes it hard to see if cars are coming. I would feel safer with a crosswalk
