I'm collecting signatures to see if there is support to convince Fort Piece City Commissioners that the residents of South Beach would like a blinking Pedestrian Crossing sign at Seaway Drive and Fernandina Street, providing safe crossing to the pedestrian path that runs through the parking lot of Manatee Island and down to the Jetty. (Something like the city installed in front of the Manatee Center.)

Providing a pedestrian path without a safe crossing on a busy (and the only) road at Seaway Drive and Fernandina Street is an incomplete & dangerous public safety solution. THIS is where cars weighing thousands of pounds cross paths with pedestrians and bikes weighing a fraction - if contact occurs, who wins? Please do the right thing and improve this crossing. Regards
If achieved, just hope it is followed and enforced. I've been known to count 8 plus cars go by before someone stops for me at such crosswalks. Thank for pursuing this.
A pedestrian crossing would be wonderful!
This is definitely needed to keep residents and tourists safe.
I have been complaining about the same thing for years. It’s very unsafe to cross there and it’s the right place for a crosswalk.
Great idea. It's always very hard to cross there with all the traffic
This location is a major crossing point on Seaway to go to the linear park and inlet. P>

Yes, certainly needed. With Manatee Restaurant traffic with people coming & going from parking lot coupled with heavy street traffic & blind spot when crossing from Fernandina due to curve...absolutely a safety issue. Thanks for taking on this project.
