We, the undersigned, do hereby petition both the City of Santa Ana and the Orange Unified School District to install improved overhead lighting and pedestrian flashing lights within the crosswalk in front of Fairhaven Elementary School at Fairhaven and Old Grand in order to improve public safety and to provide better protection for our children.
I have spent this past week drafting formal inquiries to the transportation department regarding the current illumination standards at our intersection. The feedback from local commuters continues to reinforce the urgent need for enhanced visibility protocols at this site.
November 3, 2014
The growing momentum behind this petition highlights a collective commitment to the safety of our schoolchildren. This response demonstrates that the community prioritizes clear infrastructure improvements at this dangerous intersection.

I think we should put lights because some kids stay for an after school program calle Think Together and they stay there until 6:00. It gets pretty dark at 6:00 and some kids walk home an the crossing person isn't there. That's why people won't get hurt and don't get killed. So we should put lights on that street

Soo sad that it took such a tragic event and the loss of these girls who had just begun to experience life and it's fruits. I hope something is done ASAP to prevent any other tragedies.
