By signing below, I support the proposal submitted to the Neighborhood Street Fund by the Lakewood Seward Park Neighborhood Association to add pedestrian activated walk signals with crosswalks to the following intersections: 50th Ave S and S Angeline St, 50th Ave S and S Genesee St, 50th Ave S and S Snoqualmie St, Seward Park Ave S and S Holly St
I support installation of crosswalks at the following intersections: Lake Washington Boulevard S and 43rd Ave S, Lake Washington Blvd S and 50th Ave S
I support crosswalks on raised speed humps along Lake Washington Blvd S at the following intersections:
S Dawson St, S Ferdinand St, S Genesee Way, S Adams St, 49th Ave S
The current intersections are access points to parks within the Lakewood Seward Park neighborhood. Enhancing the safety of pedestrians at the intersections will make parks more accessible and enjoyable for all.
Seattle added 15,339 people to the population between 2014 and 2015. In this period of rapid growth, safe access to our green spaces is an important goal in keeping Seattle livable and its residents healthy.

Yes please. Could also use raised speed humps at 46th as lots of people cross to the Mt Baker Rowing Center, and cars *never* stop (saw someone inches from getting hit this week).
Also, need one in front of La Escuelita on Genesse. Terrible crossing with 200 kids and parents trying to cross the busy street without any crossing and no one ever stops.
I also support a crosswalk and speed bump at the intersection of Lake Washington Blvd S and 45th Ave S, where a lot of people cross the street from Genesee Park and the neighborhood in order to access the Stan Sayres Memorial Park and the walking/jogging path along the lake. Car traffic goes pretty fast along there.
As a blind pedestrian, I am very aware of the increased traffic through my neighbourhood and strongly support these measures to make it safer for all pedestrians to walk through the neighbourhood and access our local parks.
There are so many cars on Lake Washington Blvd (LWB) now, it can take forever to cross and get to the lake. Drivers need to be reminded that LWB is actually a park, not a street. Crosswalks and raised speed humps will call attention to pedestrians waiting to cross, and will create a safer boulevard for cyclists, pedestrians and drivers by slowing traffic down.
It's such s curvy drive, people and bikes travel so fast. I'd like to have every safety measure available for pedestrians to get across and enjoy the lakefront,
I'm in complete support of more pedestrian safety.

We live on 50th and there are so many small kids around that need safe access to the playground and community center, etc. Cars sometimes go so fast we can barely get out of our driveway. Please consider adding these pedestrian safety features!
