Every weekday, students from Naperville Central run across West from the gravel lot to the other side on the street where the sidewalk is clean and shoveled. These students are risking their lives by running in front of cars early in the morning and on icy roads. Those who decide not to cross end up getting their shoes wet and have a high chance of slipping on the ice and falling into oncoming traffic. This petition is to convince the City of Naperville to shovel the other side of the road in order to keep our high school students safe!
Seeing this kind of movement confirms that I am not the only one terrified by the sight of students darting through traffic just to find a safe path. This momentum proves that we all agree on the basic necessity of keeping our kids out of the street during the morning commute.

My son walks this way every morning and it is a total disaster. Needs to get done before someone gets hit by a car.

Ridiculous that the city leaves it like this. Please just salt and plow the path.

About time someone said something. Walking on that ice is a death trap.

Please do this for the students that park in the gravel lot. This is a ongoing problem and the gravel lot is owned by the park district. So please help the students that park there.

Washington St really needs to be shoveled, there's no space between the street and the side walk, and with all the traffic someones gonna get hurt.
