Highway 9 is dangerous and needs to be more pedestrian and bicycle safe. Anyone who bikes on that road is taking their life in their hands. This is unacceptable and needs to be addressed immediately.

Stop the idiocy of trying to put a train in Santa Cruz and do some real work providing safe alternative transportation infrastructure for our community.

How many injuries are necessary to provide motivation for this? The roads are not safe for peds/bikes because many people drive too fast, are angry and inconsiderate of anyone/anything in their way. They have no patience and are not paying attention.

Students walk to school from south of the light in Felton and cannot avoid this dangerous route. We need sidewalks.

Long long long overdue! Something has to be done to keep our kids, community, and those enjoying the outdoors safe!

Blood on your hands, irresponsible county officials. Ready to do your jobs yet? Even if not, as usual, do it Now. Another thing, get a bus running from Metro station and a bike path to wherever family court is located, up Empire Grade I believe? A judge told me it's heart-breaking on the drive to court to see parents who lack cars walking, with their young children, on another dangerous stretch of mountain road.

In fact, Bryan Largay and I first brought the danger of the Highway 9 corridor through Felton to the attention of the County when our children were in Kindergarten. They are now High School sophomores. I warned then that the proximity of cars to pedestrians and cyclists was potentially fatal. I wish I'd been wrong. Everyone, from CalTrans to local government to citizens like me, have failed Josh.
